I got call from some one and ask me about the Washington gas, I himg up on him, but still he keep calling me with this number (301-962-8181) what should I do?
The people or persons calling say they are affiliated with washington gas. That they are authorized to provide you with 10% discount. This is a pishing scam.
The person on the other line told my husband that he was from Washington Gas. I spoke with him briefly and confirmed my husband's name and my name. But when he asked for my billing number, I became suspicious and asked if I could call him back. He was very evasive and told me that he would call back in 30 minutes, as I had suggested. 30 minutes and no return phone call.
Slamming attempt. They are not from Washington Gas but if you give them your account number they will switch your gas supplier to them. It will still show up on your Washington Gas bill but under a third party gas supplier. It may or may not be cheaper than who your current supplier is. Be careful because they often switch you without permission and use edited recordings of you saying yes to something else to prove you authorized the switch. That may not be the case with this caller but just be aware of what can happen.
Twice today I have gotten calls from this number. After brief pauses during which I could tell there was someone on the other end, the call was disconnected.
