| Police issue Fraud alert on fraudulent invoice from Town of Franklin department |
***FRAUD ALERT***
This week an organization in Franklin received an invoice from the “Planning & Development Department” requesting a wire payment. The fraudulent invoice even used the new Town of Franklin logo. Now it could be argued this is one of the worst photoshop attempts of all time but that’s a conversation for another time.
If you receive one of these please please please do not wire money.
If you have questions about any bill you receive from the Town of Franklin we implore you to call Town Hall and confirm the invoice with the respective department before paying it.
If you think you’ve been scammed or have questions about a potential scam you can always call the station at 508-528-1212 or stop by the station.
Thank you!
You can listen to Rydio talk with Town Administrator Jamie Hellen about this scam going around MA. Skip ahead to about 25 minutes for the scam section, or just listen through the 28 minutes. -> https://soundcloud.com/localraydio/ray-in-the-morning-frankln?si=c46a9254ecd444f289d0757276b71461
