Council warns motorists of scam penalty charge notices via text message
By Nadia Sayed 11th Dec 2025
Warwickshire County Council has issued a warning for motorists over scam Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs).
The Council highlighted it does not send text messages about the payment of PCNs and that those who receive an SMS message should not click on any links.
Penalty notices are issued by being placed on your vehicle's windscreen, or sent by post if this isn't possible.
Genuine penalty charge notices from Warwickshire County Council will start with ZQ.
Individuals can pay penalty charges securely online, by post, or telephone.
If possible, those who receive suspicious messages should report them to their mobile provider.
