🚨 SCAM ALERT — ELECTRIC UTILITY PHONE SCAM 🚨

Residents are being warned about a phone scam involving callers who are pretending to be representatives of Ameren.

The caller may claim that your electric bill is past due and demand immediate payment, threatening that your electricity will be shut off if you do not pay. The number they give is 1-888-300-7419 ext 1003.

⚠️ Do not give the caller your credit card, bank information, account information, Social Security number, or other personal information.

If you receive a suspicious call:

Do not make a payment to the caller.
Do not provide personal or financial information.
Hang up and verify your account through an official Ameren contact method.
If you believe you have been a victim of a scam, report it to the appropriate authorities.

Please share this alert with family, friends, and neighbors — especially those who may be more vulnerable to phone scams.

When in doubt, hang up and verify before you pay. 🚨

Moniteau County Emergency Dispatch is excited to announce the launch of our new Public Reporting Application.

Originally developed to assist with non-emergency reporting following severe weather events, this tool now provides residents with a quick and convenient way to report a variety of non-emergency public safety concerns directly to the appropriate agencies.

Using the app, you can report:
⚡ Power Outages
🌳 Trees Blocking Roadways
🛑 Missing or Damaged Road Signs
🚧 Traffic Hazards
🌉 Road, Bridge, and Culvert Issues
💧 Utility Problems and Water Leaks
🌪️ Storm Damage
⛈️ Weather Reports
🔥 Controlled Burns
…and much more.

Why We Built It?
During severe weather events, Moniteau County 911 becomes easily inundated with reports of utility issues and traffic hazards.
While every report is important, each non-emergency call also ties up a dispatcher and a 911 phone line that may be needed for someone experiencing a true emergency.

During develop we decided this can be used for more than just severe weather events an expanded its functionality for daily use as public reports are instantly displayed onto our event map.

Our goal is simple; Keep 911 available for emergencies while still ensuring non-emergency issues are reported quickly and efficiently.

How It Works:
Every report submitted through the Public Reporting App is automatically displayed on the Moniteau Emergency Portal Map, allowing Emergency Management and responding agencies to view incidents in real time, identify areas of greatest need, and prioritize resources more efficiently.

When Should I Use the App?
Use the Public Reporting App for non-emergency issues that need attention but do not require an immediate emergency response.

🚨 If you have an emergency, a crime in progress, a fire, a medical emergency, or any situation where life or property is in immediate danger, always call 911.

By using the Public Reporting App for non-emergency concerns, you're helping keep emergency phone lines open for those who need them most.

You can find more information on our website along with a link to the application website: https://moniteau911.com/incident-reporting

If you notice an issue or have any suggestions on how we can improve this process, please feel free to contact us at [email protected]
