We have received a number of reports today that residents are receiving phone calls from someone pretending to be from the Northborough Police Department. This person is identifying themselves as “Sergeant/Officer Franklin” from our department, demanding payment for missed court dates, unpaid citations, subpoenas, etc. THIS CALL IS A SCAM. Our department will never call you requesting payment. This person/persons is spoofing our phone number, so the call appears on your caller ID as 508-393-1515. Again, this is an attempt to scam payments from you – just hang up and do not provide any information.
