The Cape Hatteras Electric Cooperative received multiple reports Friday of customers getting calls from an 800 number, with a person on the line claiming to be with electric company.
The caller threatens to disconnect power unless immediate payment is made to them. The cooperative says this is a scam.
“We will never call our members and demand immediate payment over the phone,” company officials said.
