I received a call today regarding the same mentioned above but from DTE Energy. We were informed to pay a deposit of $958.00 since we opened a new account and after paying two months worth of bills they would re-imburse us the deposit amount. They also, mentioned to go to Rite- Aid immediately since they were sending out a tech the same day to disconnect this. We called immediately the real company of DTE Energy at 800-477-4747 and was informed there was no such thing in our account and therefore it was a scam. Be aware and dont fall for this.

I received a recorded message stating my electricity would be shut off in 30 minutes. I called back the number which had consumer energy recordings to pay bill with a credit card. I hung up and called Consumers 1-800 number and was told my balance was zero and not going to be shutoff.
caller id shows up as consumers energy..saying my service will be disconected for non payment...my account has never been late. i called consumers..theydon't make phone calls
This number stated my phones would be disconnected in 30 minutes. my balance is paid up so i knew this was fraud. they also have a recording of the Consumers Power, you can tell they recorded it. I will be contacting the Consumers
