Police and city warn of new Saskatoon Light and Power scam

A new phone scam is making the rounds in Saskatoon.

The city and Saskatoon police say people are receiving calls, supposedly from Saskatoon Light and Power.

The caller claims unless a payment is made, service will be cut off.

According to the city, it doesn’t collect credit card or bank information over the phone.

If there is an outstanding account balance, a notice is mailed out.

If you suspect you’ve had one of these scam calls, police suggest you report it online to police and the Canadian Anti-Fraud Agency.
