🚨 **Warning to Powys Residents: Beware of Fake Parking Fines!** 🚨
Residents of Powys, watch out! It seems fraudsters are at it again. There’s been an alarming increase in reports of dodgy text messages claiming you’ve got outstanding parking fines. These texts include a link urging you to pay up—DON’T FALL FOR IT!
The council has confirmed this is a scam designed to pinch your personal and financial info. Remember, genuine parking fines in Powys are only issued through the Wales Penalty Processing Partnership, and they never reach out via text message.
Here’s what you need to do:
1. **Do NOT click on any links.**
2. **Delete the messages immediately.**
3. Stay alert for any unusual payment demands—better safe than sorry!

Stay safe out there, Powys! 🌟
