Known scams, fraud, and phishing alerts:

23 September 2020: A scammer is asking customers to pay 70% of their outstanding invoice balance, in return for the scammer paying the full account balance.

We have been notified that there is a scammer offering to pay energy customers' entire bill on their behalf if the customer pays 70% of the invoice balance.

The scammer encourages customers to call their energy retailer to confirm that full payment has been made on their behalf (the scammer pays this). The customer is tricked into thinking the arrangement is genuine and agrees to pay the scammer 70% of the bill amount as agreed. The scammer then immediately requests a merchant chargeback from the energy retailer (refund) for the amount paid. After having paid the scammer 70% of the invoice amount, the customer is left owing the full amount to their energy retailer.
