FBI warning against E-ZPass Scammers

Scammers are at it again with fake E-ZPass, EZDriveMa or other road toll collection service claiming you owe unpaid tolls and seeking immediate payment.According to the FBI, the definition of smishing is a social engineering attack using fake text messages to trick people into downloading malware, sharing sensitive information or sending money to cybercriminals. The “smishing” scam targets E-ZPass holders, sending them fraudulent text messages that claim to be from E-ZPass and then trick customers into clicking malicious links and/or asking for payment information. Do you think that it is impossible to protect the general public against scammers ?
