From: Detective Mark Saloil - Sturbridge Police Department

August 26, 2008

The Sturbridge Police Department would like to make the public aware of a scam being attempted on area residents. Various residents have received phone calls from an automated system identifying themselves with either the Southbridge Credit Union or the Sturbridge Credit Union, and are asked to enter or provide their respective ATM, debit or credit card information.

THIS IS NOT LEGITIMATE, and is in no way affiliated with any financial institution in Sturbridge. Residents are cautioned not to provide any type of information to this calling party, and are asked to notify the Sturbridge Police at 508-347-2525, or their local police agency if not in Sturbridge, should they receive any calls.
