Beware Of 'Gypsies' Operating In Town: Westborough Police
They offer to seal your driveway, it comes out crappy, and then they may try to break into your house, say police. Beware.
WESTBOROUGH, MA—"Gypsies, tramps and thieves!" Well, that's what they called Cher.
Westborough police are referring to a scammy group hitting the area as "gypsies," and are warning residents to steer clear. This group, said police, is known to be a collection of scam artists attempting to sell driveway sealing at a low price and then may attempt to break into houses in the area.
The sealing job is also a very low quality sealer and may wash away after a few rainstorms. They mainly go door to door to look for work, said police.
