The Westford Police Department (WPD) recently issued a statement regarding another scam alert for the Westford area.
Last week, police in Westford reported that multiple residents around Westford had received calls from the Sudbury Police Department’s phone number, demanding them for money.
According to the Sudbury Police Department, they do “not collect fees associated with criminal or civil complaints,” which is what the scammers were allegedly claiming.
