Someone is calling local residents and seeking personal information under the guise of a Township of Langley survey – but the Township isn’t doing a survey.

The Township has received a number of reports as of Thursday, May 27, of what appears to be a scam aimed at getting personal information from local residents.

“The Township of Langley has not authorized any organizations or individuals to call on our behalf,” a Township representative said in a statement released Thursday. “We rarely conduct telephone surveys and would not ask for personal information.”

The Township is advising anyone who gets such a “Township survey” call to not respond, and to call the Langley RCMP non-emergency line at 604-532-3200 to report the call.
