Text messages impersonating the DoR have been reported throughout the Commonwealth, often with fake links to websites or promises of refunds that are used to steal sensitive personal and financial information from people.
Similar scam texts impersonating the Philadelphia DoR, along with several other states, including California, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Missouri, which officials said indicates a larger coordinated effort.
The DoR is reminding Pennsylvanians everywhere that they do not send out unsolicited text messages asking for banking information and to report any texts they think might be a scam.
“We want to make it absolutely clear that the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue does not send unsolicited text messages asking for banking information,” said Secretary of Revenue Pat Browne. “If you have any suspicion that you received a message like this, do not click any links, do not respond, and delete the message immediately.”
In order to avoid being scammed, the DoR recommends the following:
