The City of San Diego has issued a warning to its residents about a new type of scam circulating via fraudulent text messages. These messages claim to notify recipients about an alleged "parking invoice" and direct them to make payments through a fake link.  

 

Authorities have clarified that these notifications do not come from the municipal administration and are actively working to shut down the fake website associated with this scam.
