PG&E customers report telephone scams with calls that show PG&E on the caller ID 1-800-743-5000. Or, the caller may falsely claim to represent PG&E.

Some of the fraudulent calls have included:

• Telling customers they owe past-due balances or are eligible for a federal tax refund
• Trying to sell a service such as a solar evaluation
• Claiming a power shutoff is imminent and asking for personal information to determine if customer’s address will be impacted
• Claiming to represent a PG&E initiative so they can sell a product or gain entrance to your home

Be aware that scammers can disguise their true phone numbers or simply claim to be from PG&E. PG&E is not making these calls.

WE NEVER ASK FOR YOUR FINANCIAL INFORMATION OVER THE PHONE. False financial requests like this should be treated as scams.

The PG&E Corporate Security Department and the authorities are investigating all reported scams.

The following are tips to help protect you from potential scams:

• Safeguard your personal information and credit card numbers by avoiding giving the information out over the phone. If you gave someone your credit card or checking account information over the phone, report it to the credit card company or bank and law enforcement.
• Beware of emails requesting your personal information. PG&E takes your security very seriously. We do not email anyone requesting that they provide personal information without first logging into your online PG&E account or calling us.
• Call PG&E at 1-833-500-SCAM (1-833-500-7226) if you're concerned about the legitimacy of a call about a past due bill, service request or request for personal information
• Ask to see identification before letting anyone who claims to be a PG&E representative inside your home. PG&E employees always carry their identification and are always willing to show it to you.
• Call the PG&E Customer Service line at 1-833-500-SCAM (1-833-500-7226) if a person claiming to be an employee shows identification and you still feel uncomfortable.
