Swanzey Residents,

We have received multiple calls on this scam as well. If you any questions please feel free to contact an officer at 603-355-2000.

We have received several calls and walk in complaints today about a text message being received advising the recipients that they are being subpoenaed to the Hillsborough Court. We would like to warn you that this appears to be a scam. The court system does not send out subpoenas via text. If you were subpoenaed to court it would be delivered by a law enforcement officer or the US mail. If you have any doubts you can reach the Hillsborough Court at 855-212-1234
