Scam Alert: Lansing BWL Service Shut Offs
There is a new scam that has been going around lately where customers are getting phone calls supposedly from Lansing BWL telling them that their service may be shut off. The BWL addressed the scam on Twitter.
As a general rule, you should never give your credit card number or social security number out over the phone. This is especially true if you get a call and think something sounds fishy. You can read a discussion thread about this particular scam in the 517 Living Community ❤️ Greater Lansing Area, Michigan Facebook Group, and get more information from the BWL on their website.
