Description

I received a text message stating that enforcement penalties begin on August 2. Their records showed that I had an outstanding traffic ticket. They quoted a Tennesse "code" 15C-16.003. (I know that is not a real T.C.A. code much less how you cite any legal code.) They threatened to report me to the DMV Violation database, suspend my driver's license for 30 days, suspend my registration starting August 2, transfer to a toll booth and charge a 35% service fee, prosecution and negative impact to my credit score. It also instructed me to reply "Y" and reopen the message to click the link.
