IT SEEMS IMPROBABLE ANYONE WOULD FALL FOR THIS SCAM, BUT THEY DO
Look no state or federal official is going to call you and demand you pay a fine for anything. Some fines may be referred to a collection agency. They as a general rule will not demand you drive around town to pay the fine to BIT coin tellers. [I say generally, because 20 years ago I had a parking ticket referred for collections. I was not even living in Dallas at the time. A well-known collection agency paid me I believe $5,000 to settle the suit.]
If you owe a fine, you will get notice through the mail. Even then if you call them demand proof of the fine. They have to give you proof or stop calling.
When I read this story, I could not believe people actually fell for the claim they owed over $20,000 for a failure to appear fine.
