  • •Fraudulent messages create urgency with threats of penalties.
  • •Users are directed to fake websites mimicking TPARK.

The National Cyber Security Directorate (DNSC) has issued a warning about a phishing campaign involving fraudulent SMS messages claiming to be from TPARK, a parking payment application. Victims receive messages stating they owe parking fines and are urged to pay immediately via a malicious link. The messages create a false sense of urgency by threatening penalties for late payments. The links lead to websites that closely mimic the official TPARK site, using similar logos and graphics to deceive users. Users are prompted to enter their vehicle registration numbers, which are then used in a fraudulent payment process. The DNSC advises users not to click on links in unsolicited SMS messages and to verify the authenticity of any claims before providing personal information. This scam affects individuals who use the TPARK application for parking payments.
