If you have ever moved from a rental location, or a home, and either owe money to Xcel Energy or forgot to discontinue your electric service after moving - this is the debt collector calling to get the money you owe Xcel.
I receive calls from “Kelly Smith” (with an English accent) from this number.
They left me one voicemail which said my name, that it was important, and that I should press “1″, “2″ or “3″ to contact them (how the heck do you do that on a voicemail?) . The voicemail did NOT give a company name. The other voicemails are just one second of dead air.
My debts are all paid up, and I have received NOTHING about any debt owed via mail, email or messages. So, this is indeed very suspicious - perhaps a scammer?
Other people have been getting the “Kelly Smith” calls from other numbers. See:
