There are a number of parking ticket scams going around designed to get your personal info. Here’s how it works and how you can spot a fake parking ticket.
The Better Business Bureau is warning drivers after a string of reports about fake parking tickets. Scammers use hand-held printers to make a fake ticket and leave it on your car’s windshield. The BBB said they can get elaborate, with some scammers even using QR codes.
If you follow the instructions, you’ll end up paying a fine you don’t actually owe and giving away your personal information. Before visiting a new place, the Better Business Bureau recommends researching available parking and parking requirements. If you get a citation — look at it carefully. Scammers can imitate logos and city office names. Next, double-check to who the ticket needs to be paid. Checks should be made to a specific organization and not a string of initials or personal names.
Another way to protect yourself — pay with a credit card. That makes it easier to dispute fraudulent charges.

Buttigieg finds himself in the spotlight for better or worseThe nation's transportation secretary usually holds one of the most public-facing roles in any presidential administration. A core aspect of the Cabinet job is to travel the country, doling out millions of public dollars and attending ribbon-cutting ceremonies for new bridges and overpasses and ports. Even by those standards, Pete Buttigieg has spent an inordinate amount of time in the national spotlight delivering the largesse of the big infrastructure and domestic spending bills.
