Advisory

Phone scams circulating today.

Multiple residents in town have received phone calls from a party
identifying himself as a Middlesex Sheriff. He will advise the
person that they or a loved one has a warrant for their arrest for failure to attend jury duty or grand jury. He then tells the person to clear up the fine for the warrant they need to go to CVS and purchase a pre-paid credit card, commonly referred to as green dot card, and put a large balance on the card and call him back with the card information.
**No law enforcement official will ever request money in lieu of clearing up an arrest warrant.** Call the Boxborough Police if you have any questions 978-264-1740
