WESTFIELD – The Westfield Gas & Electric announced Friday a scam warning.
The WG+E notes that some of their customers have been receiving calls about an unpaid balance and that service would be turned off if the balance is not resolved immediately over the phone.
A spokesperson said in a statement, “Any WG+E customers who are scheduled for disconnection due to nonpayment will receive WRITTEN notice on WG+E letterhead that includes what actions they must take to maintain service. WG+E will NOT send an employee to the residence to seek payment nor do we initiate phone calls requesting payment. Please be cautious any time you receive an unsolicted phone call about any account. We recommend that you do not divulge any account or personal information. Please call us at 413-572-0100 if you ever receive a concerning call or would like to verify your account status.”
