Beware Of Westford Academy Health Scam: Police
Westford police said a Florida-based company is running a scam seeking health information about Westford Academy students.

WESTFORD, MA — Westford police recently issued an alert for a "survey scam" targeting Westford Academy parents and students. The scam is run by a Boca Raton, Florida-based organization, according to police.
"The survey indicates that it is from the Westford Academy Health Department- which is FALSE," Westford police said in a statement. "The survey, if completed, will provide your son/daughter with additional surveys, which will solicit inappropriate information and even pictures from your child."
The survey was sent out to "many" Westford Academy students via e-mail, police said. Students and parents are advised not open the email if they receive it, police added.
