Picture this: a call pops up claiming a discount on your electric bill, then asks for your account or zip code. The number +1‑610‑200‑0429 is repeatedly linked to Eversource Energy‑style spoofed offers, but the pattern is unmistakably a scam. Never share personal or payment details with unsolicited callers, and hang up if the script feels rehearsed. Use a reputable call blocker and add the number to your carrier’s spam list. Report the incident to the FTC and your state’s consumer protection office. If you’re curious, verify any legitimate offers by contacting the utility directly through official channels.
These energy scammers appear to have limitless phone numbers at their disposal, as evidenced by the call I received on my home phone today, and it seems that blocking one number only leads to another call from a different number within a day or two, much like a game of Whac-a-Mole.
Today, at 12:06 pm, we received a call from this number, which we didn't answer, and the caller ID displayed GLENOLDEN PA, with a partial voicemail message left about an Eversource Energy discount, leading us to add this number to our call blocker.
There was no message left by the caller.
