Scam Alert

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet is warning people of a text message phishing attempt that was first reported Wednesday. The sender of the message is impersonating the state agency.

The text message is not from KYTC and recipients are warned not to click the link. The Cabinet does not send text messages that solicit personal information.

Victims who have submitted any personal information are advised to visit the Kentucky Office of the Attorney General website at ag.ky.gov and to follow their guidance concerning potential identity theft.
