Ameren Phone Scam Reported

KRMS has received warnings about another phone scam.  Lake area residents are reportedly getting calls from robo-dialers posing as Ameren UE.  The calls claim to be an attempt to collect on a “seriously past due amount” and threaten that your service will  be disconnected that same day if a payment is not received during the phone call.  This is a scam.  Do not provide any personal information.  Make a note of the number and contact your local law enforcement agency.
