Received a call at a business from Krystal at 815/390-3250. She asked to speak with the person responsible for the Nicor account. I told her that this person was a volunteer and in and out, so could I take a message. She gave me her name and number again and asked for them to have the Nicor bill ready. I told her we did not have Nicor, we have Come Ed and Ameren. She then realized I had caught her lie, and hung up. The number on the caller ID was different - 815/323-6560
A very fast talking female named "Minnie" left a voice mail, saying to call back with our NICOR bill in hand. Has to be telemarketing; we don't use natural gas.
Same as above - we don't have a Nicor account, but they are calling telling us: "Hello my name is Michelle, give me a call today in regards to a Nicor gas account. It's important you return the call at 815-390-3250 ext. 73. Once again that's 815-390-3250 ext. 73. Please just have a copy of the Nicor gas bill when you return the call. Thank you."
FRAUD and SCAM. Scamming NICOR gas customers, composing their messages to make it sound like they work for NICOR and that there is some sort of problem that needs resolution.
