Watch Out! This Scam Is Making It’s Way Across Montana.
We have all been through this before. We get robocalls or emails that say a specific account has been suspended and that we need to enter our account information. I have even been getting texts about some sort of suspended account I have.
I recall years ago, my grandparents were receiving phone calls from a scammer telling them that one of their grandchildren was in jail, and needed to be bailed out. They were asking for their bank information to "post bail". Luckily, my grandparents reached out to us to make sure we were not in fact, in jail.
The latest scam going through Gallatin County is one from the motor vehicle department. Apparently, people have been receiving, in the mail, a letter that states it is from the Vehicle Services Department. The letter states that your registration is about to expire and they need some new information from you. This is just another way for these lowlife scammers to get your personal information.
If you have received this "notice" in the mail, the only thing you can do is ignore it and throw it away. The Gallatin County Motor Vehicle Department does NOT send out these types of letters and won't in the future.
You can reach out to the Gallatin County Motor Vehicle Department if you have any questions about your vehicle registration.

Again, if you receive a phone call, text, email, or piece of mail that doesn't seem legit, it's probably not. Do not give out any of your personal information.
