It’s around 15 of a Saturday when I’m home and the cellphone rings.
It’s a landline I don’t know, but I answer anyway because could be anything.
It’s somebody who knows my name and pretends to be from my electric company, saying I have two unpaid bills. This is strange because I have direct payment on my bank account, before calling they’ll send both snail and e mails and it’s a saturday. I pretend to be busy and asks that they send an email, to which the caller react like I’ve insulted his mother, and tell me they’re going to cut my electricity this evening.
I laugh a little and close the call, but since I’m anxious I first check my bank account and see no anomalies, then I call the actual electric company and they confirm that I have no unpaid bills or anything.
I’m not going to the police with this scam attempt because I know it will be buried under a lot of paperwork and go nowhere.
