PROVIDENCE – Secretary of State Nellie M. Gorbea and Attorney General Peter F. Neronha are warning Rhode Islanders about scam text messages reported this weekend that claim to be from the Rhode Island Department of State.
The messages encourage Rhode Islanders to sign up for a “COVID-19 Safe Drive to Work” program – a program that does not exist. The text messages are a scam and do not come from the Rhode Island Department of State, they warned Sunday in urging people not to reply or click on the link.
The link in the messages takes consumers to a web page that looks like an official Rhode Island Department of State page.
