Receiving phone calls from this number. I pay my bill directly to Ohio Edison every month, never late. These people wanted me to pay them for my electric because it was due to be shut off. It's a scam.

No message left - hangs up when my answering machine picks up

Automated attendant left message about "please press 4" or hang up. Hmm. Called the number back and the "service I was trying to reach is unavailable."

I got a call from this number for the first time today. They called back about an hour later. I googled the number and it led me to a photography studio in DE?? Then clicked this link where everyone is told its the electric company...hmm...

Ok, I have receieved word back from FirstEnergy Corp on behalf of JCP&L. This is what they had to say:
Thank you for using FirstEnergy's Customer Care Web site. JCP&L recently
launched an initiative to contact those customers that were listed as
having a dog. To ensure the safety of our meter readers, we did ask those
customers to contain their dog(s). If you no longer have a dog, please
advise so we may update your account accordingly.
Seems to be legit.

I have sent an email to FirstEnergy Corp. (the parent company of JCP&L) with the mentioned phone number and details requesting clarification. Perhaps they can look into this and work to end whoever is behind it.
In the mean time, I would not answer the phone for this number and I would most certainly NOT give them any kind of personal information, PIN numbers, social security, bank accounts, etc. If your phone provider has an option to block numbers, you should probably consider adding this one to your block list.

888-258-1608 - Hah, they just called back, not even a half hour after the first time. It was an automated message claiming to be JCP&L. Not even a half hour later. Must be desperate for a mark. I did not interact with the automated service this time, but maybe next time. I'd love to get a live person on the line to question and annoy. Actually, I'm going to check out forwarding the number to JCP&L for them to check out. Maybe they'll be slightly upset someone is assuming their identity to defraud people?

Called a few minutes ago. Also live in the 732 area code and decided to search to see who/where the number comes up to which led me to this site. Didn't answer, don't plan to. If I do, I'm going to have some fun with this...gentlemen.

tried calling the number back and message states that the service that I am trying to reach is unavailable.
| Lorrie 2007-10-11 18:24:56 Unknown |
Keep calling. No one there when I answer.
| CE 2007-10-04 23:37:42 Unknown |
I've been getting calls from this number. Caller ID says, "Toll Free Number." They leave a message saying they are my electric company. They are not. Do not call this number back. SCAM!
| tired2007 2007-10-04 17:46:33 Unknown |
calls many times- never leaves message- states electric company one time, then department store the next time.
| diamond 2007-08-22 15:06:37 Unknown |

| SunnyP 2007-08-15 15:04:39 Unknown |
