Fraud Alert ‼️ We received a report that a customer had received two fraudulent phone calls. The caller stated that the customer was 2 months overdue and service would be discontinued unless they made a payment with them.

✅ Always be on alert for phone scams. Phone scams come in many forms, but they tend to make threats or ask you to pay certain ways.
✅ Do not give out sensitive information such as an account number, banking information, or personal information such as your social security number
✅ Hang up. Ask the caller their name and extension and call the office directly, with a phone number obtained from your bill or other legitimate source. Do not call a phone number provided by the caller.
✅Do not trust your caller id.

Lyndon Electric does occasionally make collection calls to customers that are overdue. The LED employee calling will ask for you by name and be able to provide account specific information such as balance due, last payment, service address, and mailing address. If you do not recognize the employee calling, hang up and call the Lyndon Electric Business Department.
