FOXBOROUGH, Mass (WJAR) — The Foxborough Police Department said it was investigating the sale and delivery of a large amount of motor oil by an allegedly fraudulent company.

Police said that a business reported to police that on Dec. 27, 2025 it fulfilled a sale of "two large orders" of motor oil totaling almost $12,000.

Police said the credit card used to purchase the oil was stolen from an out-of-state victim.

Police then tracked the oil to a business in Providence, which believed it had purchased it from a legitimate wholesaler and not an allegedly fraudulent company.

Police said an investigation determined the financial trail of the fraud potentially had ties to the Dominican Republic.

Providence police assisted with the investigation.
