MVC warns New Jeresyans of new scam

NEW JERSEY – The New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (NJMVC) has been made aware of emails and text messages circulating that are asking individuals to “validate” their driver license information for a “REAL ID system upgrade or “Driver’s License Verification.”

“These emails and texts do not originate from the NJMVC and may be part of a scam,” the NJMVC said.

The NJMVC does not ask individuals to conduct motor vehicle services unsolicited by email or text.

Individuals should always exercise caution when receiving unsolicited communication (emails, texts, or phone calls)- especially those that ask you to click on a link or provide personal information.

Anyone with questions regarding communications from the NJMVC, contact them directly.
