Maritime Electric has received inquiries from customers saying they received text messages from a number that claims to be Maritime Electric.
The message advises the customer that they have received a refund and to click on a link to receive the refund.
Maritime Electric advises that they do not conduct business in this manner and want to advise the public that this is a scam.
Charlottetown Police Services wish to remind the public to use caution when dealing with service accounts and banking information, best practice is to call your service provider directly.
