Florida Court Clerks Warn Public About Fake Payment Websites Targeting Residents
The Florida Court Clerks & Comptrollers Association (FCCC) is alerting the public to a growing threat involving fraudulent websites and social media accounts that are impersonating the official court payment portal, PayFLClerk.com. These imitation sites may appear convincing and often include links to well-known agencies, but they are not legitimate and pose serious security risks.
Officials are urging residents to exercise caution when making online payments related to court services. The safest and most reliable way for Manatee County residents to pay fines, fees, or access clerk services is by visiting the official website at www.ManateeClerk.com.
The Manatee Clerkâs Office is encouraging anyone with questions or concerns about online payments to contact their office directly at (941) 749-1800. Residents are reminded not to submit any personal or financial information through unfamiliar or unofficial websites.
