(MSC News)--The Kansas Corporation Commission is working to make residents aware of what the agency says is a suspicious offer pertaining to electric savings.
According to a release, the KCC has received a report that an individual claiming to be working with the state agency is calling utility customers and offering a 30% discount on their electric bills. Based on what has been reported to KCC, the caller asks about Medicare or Medicaid eligibility, then asks for a credit card so the refund can be applied.
KCC, calling the offer a scam, says the person is not affiliated with the agency, which urges consumers to use caution if they receive a call and to provide no personal information, with hanging up on the would-be scammer the best bet to protect financial information.
