Please be advised that SPD received a report of a door-to-door magazine subscription scam that occurred in the area of Prichard Ave and Kidder Ave. Residents are advised to be wary of all unsolicited offers and to research the company/service before providing any form of payment. Residents are also advised not to share any personal or financial information nor let unknown salespersons into their homes.

Note that door-to-door solicitors are required by city ordinance to register with the Somerville Police Department’s Records Division and should have documentation of such. You may confirm a solicitor’s registration by calling the SPD Records Division at 617-625-1600 x 7244.
