GERMAN TOWNSHIP RESIDENTS BE AWARE!

🚨 SCAM ALERT 🚨

A resident reported receiving a phone call from someone claiming to be with AES Ohio. The caller stated that due to Archer Energy being acquired by Direct Energy, the resident was required to pay $900 immediately to cancel her Archer contract or her electric service would be disconnected later that same day.

This is a scam.

After verifying the information with an energy industry representative, it was confirmed that there is no known acquisition involving Archer Energy that would result in customers needing to make immediate payments. Additionally, if a supplier were acquired, existing contracts would still be honored. AES Ohio would only disconnect service for nonpayment of a customer’s actual electric bill.

Remember:
⚠️ Utility companies do not typically demand immediate payment over the phone.
⚠️ Scammers often create a sense of urgency to pressure victims into paying.
⚠️ Never provide payment or personal information to unsolicited callers.
⚠️ If you receive a suspicious call, hang up and contact your utility company directly using a verified phone number.

Please share this post to help protect friends, family, and neighbors from becoming victims of this scam

⚠️ Scam Alert – Stay Vigilant ⚠️

The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office is continuing to alert residents about an ongoing scam involving fraudulent phone calls related to jury duty and court appearances. Reports of this scam persist across the region, with scammers using new tactics to appear more credible.

In recent cases, callers are falsely identifying themselves as MCSO Sgt. Scott Mullins and are using the phone number 937-355-5532. They claim the resident has missed jury duty or a scheduled court appearance and must pay a fine immediately to avoid arrest.

Victims are often pressured to make payments through platforms such as PayPal, Apple Pay, money orders, or other electronic methods. Scammers may also use caller ID spoofing and real employee names to make the calls appear legitimate.

"These scams continue to evolve, but the goal remains the same—to create urgency and pressure individuals into sending money," said Sheriff Rob Streck. "The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office will never call you to demand payment or threaten arrest for missed jury duty or court-related matters."

Residents should remain cautious of unsolicited calls requesting immediate payment or personal information. If you receive a suspicious call, take a moment to verify the information through official channels before taking any action. The Sheriff's Office also encourages residents to continue sharing this information with others, as awareness is key to preventing further victimization.
