Pembrokeshire drivers are being warned to be alert to a parking fine scam which has been targeting people in the county.
Pembrokeshire County Council has issued a warning this week about the issue, which has also been reported in other areas.
The authority said: "Pembrokeshire County Council has had reports of people being contacted via text regarding parking fines and is warning anyone who has received that this is not genuine.
"The messages claim to be from the Parking Team and include a PCN reference and a demand for payment.
"Pembrokeshire County Council does not use mobile phone texts to contact anyone issued with a penalty charge notice - parking fine.
"We are aware these scam messages have been received in other parts of the country."
