If someone calls or knocks on your door promising a better deal on electricity, be cautious — you could be misled into switching to a supplier that will cost more. Salespeople who offer to save you money may ask for your account number or to see your bill. Most likely they are selling a low introductory rate or trying to get your account number so they can switch you to a different provider with your permission. Representatives from the Village and its electricity supplier, MC Squared Energy Services, never solicit door-to-door or by telephone. More information, including some basic guidelines to help avoid scams, is available at www.oak-park.us/electricscam.
