Selwyn Township has posted to their social media accounts warning the public about someone going door-to-door in Lakefield claiming they are from the “water company” checking water quality and chlorine levels and advising people that they pay to install a filter.
Selwyn Township advises the public that this is a scam, and not to comply with these door to door requests.
If you are ever unsure whether someone is legit, do the following:
-> do not allow them entrance into your home -> request identification -> remember you can always call Peterborough Utilities Group or Selwyn Township to confirm if there are any staff members working in your area
