BEWARE PHONE SCAM!!!!
BEWARE PHONE SCAM!!!!  Several folks on Marco got phone calls after I
sent this out yesterday!!   STAY ALERT!!!   
PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVES OF THE ELECTRIC COMPANY!!
Saying they have not paid their electric bill and\or the last payment was rejected.  The caller (area code 818) says you have to go to your local 7-11, Walgreens, etc and buy a pre-paid"Green Pak" 
and call them back to keep your electric from being turned off.  NEVER pay demands like this over the phone and "DO NOT" call the number back to verify as you may be charged "bogus" phone rates.  
IF IN DOUBT, HANGUP AND CALL THE ELECTRIC, TELEPHONE, ETC. company back to verify there is NOT a problem.
