If you receive a call and believe it to be a phone scam, hang up and call DP&L at 800-433-8500.
Look out for calls that state your power will be shut off immediately if a payment is not made or ask you to send a prepaid debit card.
Phone scammers are said to often target small businesses and the elderly.
Scams don't just happen over the phone; scammers may visit your home or reach out through email or social media.
DP&L is working with police to put a stop to the scams.
