Campbellsville Police Department: Phone Scam Alert

Campbellsville Police Department has been made aware of recent phone scams going around in the community.

Residences and businesses have been receiving phone calls stating, that Kentucky Utilities (KU) would be shutting their electric off within minutes, if they did not pay a certain amount.

KU will not call you by phone they will send you a notice in the mail.

I want to remind everyone to NEVER give anyone information in reference to your banking accounts over the phone unless you are 100% sure it is credible.

If you were to receive a call and you think it could possibly be a scam, HANG UP!

If an unknown number calls you, you DO NOT have to answer.
