Got a parking ticket? Has your vehicle been booted? Beware of scams!


Protect yourself against fraud. Disregard any notice or advertisement that promises to get you a discount on your parking ticket or boot removal. There are no discounts on parking tickets or boot removals.

People advertising these services will take your money and then use stolen credit card or bank account information to pay your ticket or booting fees. When the credit card or bank account holder disputes the charges, the full amount due will be added to your account, and you will be responsible for paying it.
