New Fairfield Volunteer Fire Department has been alerted to text messages have been circulating recently. The department is not currently selling T shirts, and will never solicit via text.  Fire Company A called it a scam and encouraged residents not to purchase anything through the fraudulent text messages.  This is a statewide issue, not sponsored by local fire departments and they do not benefit from the it.  These items are not legitimate and officials say there is a possibility that personal information may be stolen.
