Duke Energy is warning customers of a utility billing scam making the rounds. The way the scam works is the caller will pose as a representative of Duke Energy and they will claim the victim owes a past due bill and threaten to disconnect the power.
They imposter will assure the victim if they pay with a credit or debit card during the telephone call, their power will not be turned off.
Duke Energy officials say if you receive a call regarding your utility bill, hang up and call the police.
If you have questions regarding your Duke Energy account, call the customer service number printed on your bill.
