If you got a parking ticket recently in Las Vegas, you might want to double check if it’s real.
The city of Las Vegas warned in an X post on Tuesday that the city has received reports of fake parking tickets popping up.
The post shared some ways you can identify if your parking ticket is fake, including:
— The ticket has handwritten notes.
— The ticket states it accepts payments from Cash App.
— The ticket does not include the necessary citation number, date and officer’s name present.
If you want to verify if your parking ticket is real, you can call the city’s parking team at 702-229-4700.
