Type of a scam Utility
We were contacted by this fraudulent company on 6/26/18. They claimed to be calling from our electric company, Com Ed, and stated that we needed to make a credit card payment within 1 hour or our electrical service would be disconnected. They provided the telephone number of 866-471-8625 ext. 101 to be used for payment.
However, when I contacted Com Ed, by the number that appears on my monthly statement, I was told that our next payment was not due until July 9, 2018.
