Connecticut Light & Power is warning customers of telephone scam. Someone is calling Connecticut residents claiming to be from CL&P, offering "a $40 rebate," and then requesting that customer's CL&P account number and their Social Security number.

CL&P says it is not associated with the utility.

If you receive such a call, do not provide any information, CL&P is telling customers. It suggests you hang up the phone and call the police.

If you have any doubt regarding the authenticity of a phone call or visit from a person claiming to be a representative of CL&P, call Customer Service immediately at 800-286-2000 and ask the customer service representative to verify the call or visit.
