Text Scams in Phoenix

Phoenix has experienced intense waves of predatory SMS phishing scams, referred to as smishing. The senders tend to impersonate government agencies like the Phoenix Municipal Court or the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). And the texts warn that failure to pay immediately, via a provided link or QR code, will lead to legal action or license suspension.

ADOT shares that a recent text scam attempts to convince recipients that they have unpaid traffic tickets, which must be addressed via the link provided. Make no mistake that the texts do not come from ADOT, and you should not engage.

The goal of most text scams is to gather personal information and perpetrate financial fraud. The most important point to keep in mind is that official entities do not engage in text-based collections.

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act

Spam texts are governed by the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), which generally prohibits companies from engaging in robocall campaigns. Only when the following apply are spam texts allowed:

  • The company has the express prior consent of the recipients
  • The text offers recipients a mechanism for revoking their consent
  • The texts are informational messages, such as flight updates
  • The texts come from nonprofits or political campaigns
  • The texts are emergency alerts, such as severe weather warnings

Discuss your unique claim with an accomplished spam text lawyer today.

Text-based scams often originate in countries other than the U.S., which makes holding the scammers legally responsible more challenging. Consulting with a knowledgeable spam text attorney early on is always advised.

If you have received unsolicited promotional texts (or spam texts), turning to a trusted spam text attorney can make a big difference. The law allows consumers to hold offending companies accountable by pursuing statutory damages that start at $500 per illegal text. If, however, the company willfully or knowingly engages in illegal texting practices, the fine per illegal text rises to $1,500.
