Why did I get a text message from the police?

You get a text message from the police because a liar impersonates the police to send a text message, the police send a safety reminder or you have a personal matter involving the police.

Some scammers will pretend to be policemen and send short messages, trying to get your personal information or cheat you out of money. In this case, you should be cautious and verify the authenticity of the news through formal channels.

2. Perhaps it is a security warning sent by the police to the public through SMS, such as fraud prevention and traffic safety. In this case, you can read the information carefully and take corresponding measures according to the guidelines provided by the police.

3. When you have personal affairs involving the police, such as court summons, tickets, etc., the police will also remind you of relevant matters through SMS. In this case, you should take corresponding actions according to the instructions of SMS, and make sure to contact a regular police agency for confirmation.
