National Utility Scam Awareness Day is Nov.20
CAYCE, S.C. (Nov. 20, 2024) – Dominion Energy is reminding customers to stay alert and protect themselves from utility scams this holiday season.
“Scammers will never take the day off, especially during the holidays. In fact, we see an increase in scam activity this time of year,” said Sam Dozier, general manager of customer service at Dominion Energy South Carolina. “Scammers are counting on customers to be vulnerable or distracted during the busy rush of the holiday season, and they will do whatever they can to take advantage.”
Customers should always be suspicious of individuals claiming to be Dominion Energy employees, whether in person or virtually. Utility scammers are known to falsify their caller ID and create fake websites to make it appear as Dominion Energy. When in doubt, hang up or leave the website.
