Resident asks Wildwood Crest to investigate alleged mail fraud; requests written proof of prior inquiries
Summary
At the Wildwood Crest meeting, resident Lisa Worrell alleged two instances of mail fraud (a fake borough tax bill and a fake T‑Mobile bill) and said local police declined to investigate; she asked commissioners to order an independent review and to provide documentation of any prior police actions.
Lisa Worrell used the meeting’s public‑comment period to allege she received two fraudulent mailings in 2025 — a Wildwood Crest tax bill and a T‑Mobile bill — and said she has asked local police to investigate without receiving action. "I am making a formal request on the record today that an investigation into mail fraud... sent to my house in 2025 concerning a tax bill from Wildwood Crest and a T‑Mobile bill both that were faked that Chief Tracy Super from Middle Township and Wildwood Crest Chief of Police have refused to investigate," Worrell said.
Worrell asked the board to order an investigation by an official not involved in her pending civil litigation and requested written proof of any prior inquiry or police report. Commissioners and staff responded that the matter had been previously reviewed and staff had communicated with her; Commissioner Mr. Cabrera noted that his understanding was the request had been previously raised and reviewed. Worrell said she had not been contacted and pressed the board for documentary proof of any investigation, citing repeated prior requests to officers.
The board did not take formal action during the meeting to order an independent investigation; the chair said public comments can be raised at the meeting but the governing body is not obligated to resolve complaints immediately and may refer the matter to staff for follow‑up. Worrell’s allegation remains unresolved in the meeting record; she explicitly requested the record show she has asked for an investigation for a year and that she has not received a response from police. The transcript shows commissioners acknowledged the complaint and said staff had previously reviewed it, but no written proof was produced during the session.
Next steps: Worrell asked the board to provide written proof of any prior investigation or a plan to refer the matter to an appropriate investigative authority; reporters or residents seeking follow‑up should contact the borough clerk or the police department to request records or updates.
