SCAM ALERT: Maryland Judiciary warns of text scams about traffic violations at the District Court of Maryland
The Maryland Judiciary is warning the public about a variety of text scams that appear to reference a judge’s name, clerk’s name, and a law enforcement officer’s name, and directs recipients to report to the District Court of Maryland for a show cause court hearing on Friday, August 7, 2026, at 10 a.m., or face penalties. The current scam directs people to report to the District Court of Maryland, but it does not mention a specific courthouse location.

These texts, or any variations of it, are a scam, and recipients should not click the links, scan QR codes, nor provide any payment or personal information. Maryland courts do not send texts requesting payment or personal information via text, telephone, or email.

Members of the general public who have questions about potential scams like this can contact the Office of the Attorney General Consumer Protection Division hotline at 410-528-8662 or toll free 888-743-0023.

Additionally, scams and suspicious communications may also be reported to the Federal Trade Commission.

For any questions about a court-related item, please contact the District Court or circuit court in the local jurisdiction. Contact information for each court is available on the Maryland Judiciary’s website under “Directory of Courts.”

Even though the date of August 7th has passed, be mindful of any text messages stating similar texts, links, and QR codes.
