WILMINGTON — The Wilmington Police Department warns of a phone scam in which callers claim to represent Green Mountain Power and demand credit card information from customers to pay their account balance or face disconnection.
Should you receive such a call, police say, do not give out any personal information, including account and credit card numbers. Instead, hang up and contact Green Mountain Power directly to report the call.
Police add that residents should also report suspected scams to local police and the state attorney general's office.
