Good afternoon,
The North Brunswick Police Department has received information regarding a recent scam attempt that is being sent to potential victims via text message. In these text messages, recipients are being made to think they are being contacted by a bank, such as "Wells Fargo". The text is reporting that there is an issue with their account, and that certain personal information needs to be sent back via text or email in order to correct it. Please do not reply! If you should receive any such message, contact your bank to confirm the issue before discussing any particulars of your banking or personal information. We again advise everyone to never supply any personal information over email or text messaging. Thank you, and enjoy the rest of your day.
