The Illinois Tollway is advising I-PASS customers to disregard phishing texts being sent to their phones from “Illinois toll way” that detail a specific outstanding toll amount.
If you receive a text and are unsure, please check your account online at https://www.illinoistollway.com/ or call our customer service center at 1-800-UC-IPASS (1-800-824-7277) from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on weekdays.
I-PASS customers should delete any text that you receive stating an outstanding toll amount. The Tollway has been informed that this is a phishing scam claiming that recipients owe money for unpaid tolls.
If you receive a phishing text, please file a complaint at https://www.ic3.gov/ , a site dedicated to sharing information on Internet crimes across law enforcement agencies.
