The caller offered a 50% discount for Comcast. I don't think Comcast would call and offer a 50% discount

Email said my SaskPower bill was overdue. It appeared to have the correct 'noreplysaskpower' return email and the link to log into my SaskPower account lead to website that looked identical to SaskPower but the web address was not SaskPower and when I clicked 'reply to all' a second non SaskPower email popped up.

Said my utility bill would be disconnected with in 30 min due to non pay. However I asked them to verify exact date of my last payment & they continued to ignore my request. They also stated the bill was in my name which was inaccurate. So once I explained that information and that they could not verify my question, I said well, you’re obviously a fraud, and they hung up the phone.

Phone call from "eastlink" saying they could give us a really good deal on internet. I said I would call them back and they insisted that they could call me back. I asked for a phone number to call them back and they gave me the number that showed up on my caller ID. On the eastlink website there was no ongoing deals.

I got a call on my home phone # from a guy claiming to be with Spectrum, offering a large discount on my bundled service. He said Spectrum was merging with Apple & that I could get a 3 year offer of $135/mo if I used an Apple gift card of $405, pre-paying the first 3 months. He gave these #s for me to call. Billing: (855) 342-0104 & CS: (855) 519-1668. I called the real Spectrum CS & they confirmed that it was a scam.

I received a recording saying that my electricity would be cut off in 30 minutes if I did not pay the bill.  I talked to "Jennifer Scherwell" who said she was a supervisor. She transferred me to "Michael Valentino." He said I owed $493 dollars to keep my service. I needed to go to a CVS, Walgreens, etc to get a Green Dot card, put the money on it and call him back to tell him the scratch off code on the back to pay. I thought it unusual but I did it anyway.  I called him back and he took the information and then said that, unfortunately I needed to pay a deposit of $489. I repeated the Green Dot card reluctantly. He promised that I would get the money back for the payment and deposit for my trouble and in 120 days that I would not have to pay my bill. False promises.

Later on that evening he called me and I returned the call. He said, "I am sorry but you have been scammed." He went on to say that he "split the money with his partners in crime."

I hope this helps someone else and no one else gets scammed by them like I did. I lost $982 to these scammers.
