LANSING, Mich. (Michigan News Source) — A fake toll website is targeting Michigan drivers, despite the fact the state has no toll roads, according to a warning issued on April 14 by the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT).

The scam involves a fraudulent website that copies the look of MDOT’s official site but uses a different URL. The site claims drivers owe toll payments and threatens late fees—claims MDOT says are entirely false.

In fact, scammers often ask for payment through gift cards, wire transfers, cryptocurrency, or apps like Venmo, but legitimate government agencies will never use those methods.

While tolls do exist on certain bridges, the state “will never solicit payment via text or include threatening verbiage to avoid late fees or harsher penalties,” the department said in a statement.
