 There is a texting message scam that poses as the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Motor Vehicles. You may receive it via a text message on your cell phone.
The scam involves text messages that “spoof” or mimic the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Motor Vehicles. The spoof text advises that “records show that as of today, there is an outstanding traffic ticket” which must be paid via a scam URL. The text also outlines fictitious actions and penalties that will be taken if the ticket is not paid including license and vehicle suspension, criminal prosecution and negative impacts to personal credit scores.
The Administrative Office of Pennsylvania Courts have put out notice on this scam and that they will never place calls or send text messages to anyone soliciting payment by credit card, gift card, or any other means of electronic funds transfer for any reason.
Should you receive a text message from a number or an individual claiming to be involved with or calling from the Administrative Office of Pennsylvania Courts requesting money or payment of fines, fees or court costs, please do not provide any sensitive information or forms of payment of any kind.
Healthy Teeth for Children and Adults: A message from the Lower Merion Township Health Advisory Council
The public water supply provided by Aqua PA is not fluoridated in Lower Merion Township. Residents may consider alternative fluoride sources to support dental health and prevent tooth decay. Fluoride is essential for strengthening enamel and reducing cavities, especially in children. We recommend that you speak with your dentist or pediatrician to explore whether fluoride supplements or treatments would be warranted. If you do not have a dentist or dental care insurance, visit Dental Care Resources for information on free or reduced cost dental care.
