A caller will say they are from one of your utility companies, that you that you are behind on payments and will then threaten to shut off your utilities unless you pay over the phone, either with a credit card, gift card or prepaid debit cards.
Utility companies do not do business in this manner, The Company recommends you use only “established payment options” like those on typically listed on the utility’s website to clear a balance. Please check your locally utility company’s website for further information.
