Got a call said he was from Eversource said we had a overdue bill and our electricity will be shut off. I said go ahead and shut it off and he hung up.
The caller claimed to be from National Grid and said we had an overdue bill. They could barely speak English and could not provided any correct amounts for previous bills. I suggested it was a scam and he got very agitated and hung up.
We got the same scam!!! The caller id said the name Maria Nilceia. I reported it to the cops and they called him and he admitted he wasn't from National Grid!

David from Eversource called us on a Saturday morning at 10 am to ask whether or not I'd received the legal notice from Eversource informing us of our power being shut off in 45 minutes. I then asked him if I could just pay it online and he said the payment would not go through quick enough...he even had a case number....YF2900895731-52....I looked up our bill online with him on the phone and asked him which month he was referring to and the amount of money he was talking about. He said it was from our July bill. As I was looking this up, there were no records of this and I informed him of this. I then told him I'd call him back once I looked into it. Also, he informed me that they were legally obligated to inform businesses of energy shutoffs - I've never gotten a phone call from Eversource - they just shut sh*t off....plus - it was a SATURDAY morning - Eversource is only open M-F 9-5. Dont be fooled and dont give your credit card number to anyone over the phone.
Called saying he was David from National Grid and that our electric was about to be cut off in the next 45 minutes. Caller ID said Nilceia Maria and phone was 978-219-3581. When i mentioned that called id did not show he was calling from National Grid he hung up.
