Urgent Warning: Fake DGT Speeding Ticket Scam in Spain

Headline: Phishing Scam Targets Spanish Drivers with Fake DGT Speeding Tickets Spain is experiencing a surge in phishing scams targeting drivers. Fraudsters are sending text messages that appear to originate from the Dirección General de Tráfico (DGT), the Spanish traffic authority. These messages falsely claim a speeding ticket and include a link to a fraudulent website designed to steal personal and financial information. One Spanish social media user, in a recent video, highlighted the scam. He showed a sample message that read: "Fine for speeding, DGT (30 km/h) 50 euros, https://dgta-esei.cfd Pay promptly to avoid accumulation." The video creator, who wishes to remain anonymous, stated, "It's clearly phishing; don't click the link or give any personal data." He also pointed out that the scam was sent indiscriminately, even to people without driver's licenses. Authorities are urging drivers to exercise caution and verify any speeding tickets through official DGT channels. Do not click on suspicious links or provide personal information via unverified sources.
