No, the City of Guelph will not contact you about sanitary sewer inspections, according to a recent tweet about a new scam alert.

On Friday afternoon, the city tweeted they had been receiving reports of someone phoning residents, claiming to be from the city, and asking the resident about conducting a sanitary sewer inspection.

The city says this call is a scam as they do not contact individuals about sanitary sewer inspections, and advise residents not to give out any personal information over the phone.

Anyone who receives this call is encouraged to contact police at 519-824-1212 and make a report.
