SCAM ALERT: We have been made aware of a series of fraudulent text messages being sent to residents of Powys.

We have been made aware of a series of fraudulent text messages being sent to residents of Powys. These messages falsely claim that you have received a parking fine and instruct you to click on a link to the Powys County Council website to pay the fine.

Please do not click on the link as it is a scam.

All legitimate parking fines issued by Powys County Council are managed by the Wales Penalty Processing Partnership. Neither the Wales Penalty Processing Partnership nor Powys County Council will contact individuals via text message regarding parking fines.
