A possible scam involving utility service is circulating Southeast Kansas.

In Coffeyville, some residents and businesses have received a call stating that someone will be coming out to turn off city utilities due to a security deposit not being paid. The City says this is not coming from them and is a scam.

The Neodesha City Hall has been contacted by customers who have received a phone call from someone pretending to be Evergy. The caller says they will shut off their service and pull their electric meter. Neodesha says anyone who receives a phone call of this nature and is an electric utility customer with the City is a scam.
