The Bensalem Township Police Department is warning residents of fraudulent calls being made by someone identifying themselves as a member of the department requesting assistance and money.
The scammer is spoofing their phone number and identifying themselves as a police department employee through a psychology app, where people who need services can contact a licensed therapist. The Bensalem Police will never call a citizen asking for money.
If you receive a call like this, disconnect the call and contact Bensalem Police at 215-633-3719.
