The Transport Board is urging Barbadians to be on guard against scammers claiming to sell what they call “smart pass travel cards” to gain access to the service.
In a statement the Board revealed that within the last 48 hours there has been a noticeable increase in phishing scams on Facebook.
Chief Operations Officer, Lynda Holder tells Starcom Network News she wants Barbadians to avoid using a fake Facebook page which is requiring people to pay money to a travel card.
She stressed they will continue to monitor and upgrade their online platforms.
