I called up this new power company utility bill scammer phone number and guess who it was? I'm pretty sure it was the same Socal Edison power scammers from a month before, only now they were PG&E... Let's have some fun phone calls, shall we? Follow me: Twitter ▶ twitter.com/thehoaxhotel

The scam: Scammers pretending to be with a power company will call and say your account is past due and you need to pay them on the spot over the phone. It's a convincing scam as they usually use spoofed numbers and the actual recordings from the legitimate power company. Do not fall for this scam, and hang up if someone is harassing you into paying an electric bill on the spot.
