(Montgomery Co) SCAM ALERT

In recent weeks the Police Department has observed an increase in phone scams to Township residents.  These involve someone posing as a representative of PECO.  They advise that an account is past due and immediate payment is demanded often through a Visa Green Dot Money Pak.  The Police Department wants to remind all residents that PECO will never call you and ask for money over the phone.  If one of these scammers contacts you, immediately hang up and contact PECO at 1-800-841-4141.  Then call the police department so the incident can be documented and investigated.
