The Stamford Police Department said the envelopes are being left in mailboxes requesting tips to be sent to a P.O. Box in Norwalk.

"These are not from The City of Stamford employees," the department said.

 If you use a private garbage company ask them if they put anything in your mailbox for tips before sending any money out.
