Habersham EMC Customers Have Reported Telephone Scams

Many residents of North Georgia have either experienced, and, in some cases, have fallen victims to telephone scams. Including members of the Habersham Electric Membership Cooperative.

Habersham EMC has been notified that some members have received telephone calls stating their power would be disconnected immediately unless they provided a credit card number for payment.

“Members should hang up at once and report the call to their local law enforcement,” cautions Susan Baker, Manager of Member Services. “If HEMC members have questions regarding their accounts, customer service representatives can be reached at 706-754-2114, 706-865-4362 or 800-640-6812.”
