UDWI REMC Warning Members of Phone Scam

The Utilities District of Western Indiana REMC is warning members to be on guard against scam calls.

The callers say the intended victim’s account is past due and needs to be paid to avoid disconnection.

They ask for card information to process payment immediately over the phone.

The Bloomfield-based electric cooperative says to protect yourself, do not provide any of your personal or account information.

As always, if someone calls claiming to represent UDWI REMC, and it doesn’t sound right, call the utility’s office to verify.

UDWI REMC serves nearly 16,000 members in Clay, Daviess, Greene, Knox, Lawrence, Martin, Monroe, Owen, Putnam, Sullivan, and Vigo Counties.
