KALAMAZOO (WKZO-AM) — Police in South Haven say they’re noticing a spike in scam calls from people claiming to be with the “disconnect” departments of Consumers Energy and South Haven Electric.
They say the callers are targeting residents throughout Van Buren County, threatening utility shut-offs if they don’t receive payments through credit or green dot cards.
Authorities are urging victims to report the calls to the Better Business Bureau or the Federal Trade Commission.
