|    Red light cam ticket? Could be a fake!    |

      From: editorREDACT@highTHISwayrobbery.net              Don't fall for fake red light camera or speeding tickets.              This started in California, but will spread rapidly.              The fake red light camera tickets come in the mail, from the police!       Yours will say "Traffic Violation Notice" at the top, and will tell you       that you MUST identify the driver shown in the photo, within ten days.       But these Notices are not a real ticket. The police have not filed them       with the court (no court address on it), and in fact, somewhere on the       back it will say "Do not contact the court." It's a con job to get you       to identify the driver. I recommend that you ignore such a notice - do       not respond to it in any way. The cities known to be doing this are El       Cajon, El Monte, Encinitas, Hawthorne, Inglewood, Maywood, Southgate,       and Vista, all of which are served by camera company Redflex. But there       are probably more cities doing it. For more information, see the Your       Ticket page on the free-of-any-charge website       http://www.highwayrobbery.net .              And now, the police-run con job has competition, from the private       sector. It's now been reported that a guy in Southern California is       mailing "Traffic Violation Notices" for speeding, and telling you to       send him $280. I am sure he got the idea by watching the police.              Be careful out there.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
