Located in Illinois (WMBD), the Canton Police Department is issuing a warning to residents regarding a fresh fraud primarily aimed at those carrying student loans.

A public alert was posted by the Canton police on their Facebook page stating that a resident locally reported receiving a letter purporting to be the final notice for student loan consolidation opportunities.

This correspondence was dispatched by an counterfeit entity attempting to extract banking details along with other personal data.
