Utility and other phone scams

Residential and business account holders targeted

Dominion Energy is sharing the following “scam red flags” and urging customers to watch out for utility scammers. This advice applies to scam calls in general.

"Even if the caller ID says Dominion Energy, our customers should be on alert about demands for immediate payment and threats of service disconnection," said Utibe Bassey, Dominion Energy's vice president of Customer Experience. "That is not how we do business. When any warning sign is present, hang up. Never share personal information."
