Please be on alert for new email scam targeting Okanogan PUD customers. Threats come from a company claiming to be from AGL, a leading energy company from Australia. The scam email presents as an e-Account and asks readers to click on a link to pay their Okanogan PUD past due bill. This e-Account link contains malicious malware that has the potential to access personal information.  

As a reminder, to protect yourself from scam artists, do not give out any personal financial information. If you receive a suspicious phone call/email or computer pop up message regarding your utility bill, and feel your account has been compromised, call the Okanogan PUD’s main phone number of 509-422-3310 to verify your account information.

Keeping our ratepayers safe is of the utmost importance. As scams are discovered, the Okanogan PUD will post current information on our website at www.okanoganpud.org

Report suspicious activity to the lead agencies investigating nationwide scams: The Washington State Attorney General’s Office at 1-800-551-4636 or the Federal Trade Commission at 1-877-382-4357.
