The City of Cambridge is out with a warning.

In a tweet on Tuesday, officials said there have been reports of a fraudulent email making the rounds.

It reportedly features the city's logo, and references a 'Forex trading investment'.

The city said it's a scam, and residents should not click on any links in the email.

They're also asked to report the incident to police, and to not engage with the scammer.
