Bensalem Township officials, through a post on their Meta page, are warning residents and local businesses to be cautious of malicious email scams that falsely claim to be from the township.
Fraudulent emails often contain links or attachments to fictitious invoices and urge recipients to take immediate action.
These messages are not legitimate and attempt to deceive recipients into clicking harmful links or providing sensitive information.
