If you’ve received a text saying you owe an unpaid Georgia toll and need to pay at “GATollInvoice,” don’t click the link. GATollInvoice isn’t an invoicing tool or an official toll service. It’s the name tied to a smishing (text message phishing) scam that pretends to be Georgia’s Peach Pass toll system.
Important correction: An earlier version of this article described “GatollInvoice” as an AI-powered invoicing platform, with pricing plans, features, and customer testimonials. We couldn’t verify any of that. Security researchers at MalwareTips identify GATollInvoice.com as a scam site that has no connection to any real toll agency. We’ve rewritten this article to help readers protect themselves.
Quick answer: GATollInvoice texts are fake. They claim you have an unpaid Peach Pass toll and push you to pay through a link, so scammers can steal your personal and card details. The State Road and Tollway Authority (SRTA), which runs Peach Pass, says it won’t ask for personal or account information by text or email. Don’t click the link. Delete the message, report it, and check any real toll balance only at peachpass.com.
What the GATollInvoice Scam Text Looks Like
The messages usually:
- Claim your vehicle has an unpaid toll in Georgia
- Warn that late fees or penalties will be added if you don’t pay right away
- Include a link to a site like GATollInvoice.com
- Use names like “Georgia Tolls Services” or “Peach Pass Tolls Services”
Some versions list confusing or mismatched amounts, which is another warning sign.

What the Scammers Are After
According to MalwareTips, the fake payment page tries to collect:
| Information | How it can be misused |
|---|---|
| Full name and home address | Identity theft |
| Email and phone number | More phishing and spam |
| Vehicle details | Making future scams look more convincing |
| Credit or debit card number | Unauthorized purchases |
Stolen details can also be used to open accounts or take out loans in your name.
What Peach Pass and SRTA Say
The State Road and Tollway Authority (SRTA) runs Peach Pass. In its account safety alert, SRTA says:
- Texts from “Georgia Tolls Services” or “Peach Pass Tolls Services” asking you to click a link to pay an unpaid toll are not from SRTA.
- SRTA will never verify customers’ personal information or toll trips this way.
- It won’t ask for personal or account information by email or text.
The FBI also warned Georgians about this kind of toll scam in August 2024. FOX 5 Atlanta reported that the FBI had received more than 2,000 complaints, and the scam had appeared in at least three states.
How to Tell a Real Toll Notice From a Scam
| Real toll notices | Scam texts |
|---|---|
| Found in your official Peach Pass account or app | Arrive out of nowhere with a payment link |
| Come from official agency websites | Use look-alike domains like GATollInvoice.com |
| Don’t ask for personal details by text | Ask for your name, address, and card number |
| Give you time to check your account | Pressure you to pay immediately |
Rule of thumb: If you’re unsure, don’t use the link. Type peachpass.com into your browser yourself, log in, and check your balance.
What to Do If You Got the Text
- Don’t click the link or reply.
- Report it. Forward the text to 7726 (SPAM) to alert your mobile carrier, and file a report with the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center at ic3.gov.
- Delete the message.
- Check your real account at peachpass.com if you’re worried you owe a toll.
What to Do If You Already Clicked or Paid
- Call your bank or card issuer right away to dispute the charge and replace your card.
- Contact Peach Pass through its official website if you shared account details or see suspicious activity.
- Change passwords for any accounts you may have entered, and turn on two-factor authentication.
- Watch your credit. Consider a credit freeze with all three credit bureaus. Our Doctor of Credit guide links to a helpful credit freeze explainer.
- Report identity theft at IdentityTheft.gov if your personal details were stolen.

Similar Toll Scams in Other States
The same scam pattern has been used across the US, with texts impersonating toll systems like E-ZPass, SunPass, FasTrak, and others. The advice is the same everywhere: never pay a toll through a link in an unexpected text. Go directly to your state’s official toll website.
