(From the Hancock County Sheriff’s Office)

We have been made aware of a text message scam claiming to be from the BMV, stating that if you don’t pay a “fee” your license will be suspended.

Please remember: The BMV will never send text messages demanding payment or threatening suspension. If you receive a message like this, do NOT click any links and do NOT respond.

Stay safe and always verify through the official BMV website or by calling your local office.
