Ghanaians Warn Of Fake Traffic Offence Website Targeting Vehicle Owners.
Several Ghanaians have taken to social media to report receiving unsolicited traffic offence notifications from unknown numbers, prompting concerns about a possible scam.
The messages, sent via WhatsApp and SMS, reportedly urge recipients to pay fines for alleged traffic infractions. They include a link directing users to an online portal that requests vehicle registration details and phone numbers — raising red flags about data security and authenticity.
The digital traffic enforcement system was initially piloted under the administration of former President Nana Akufo-Addo, as part of efforts to modernise road safety enforcement through technology. However, since the pilot phase, there has been limited public communication from authorities regarding its nationwide rollout or official activation.
The recent reports have therefore triggered uncertainty among motorists, with many questioning whether the alerts are legitimate or part of a phishing scheme designed to harvest personal information. Road users are being advised to exercise caution and verify any such notifications through official channels before making payments or submitting sensitive details.
