🚨SCAMMER ALERT!🚨
SMEC is warning people to be cautious and not fall victim to telephone scams.
SMEC customers should always be suspicious of anyone calling to collect money and asking for personal information.
The co-op does not make telephone calls asking for payment of electric bills or past due accounts over the phone, nor do we request personal financial information by phone.
If you or someone you know should receive a call like this, please gather as much information as possible from the caller and contact SMEC immediately at (256) 638-2153 so the scam can be investigated.
