The Lowell Police Department would like to notify area residents that a telephone scam is being targeted at Lowell Light & Power customers.

The caller states that they are from Lowell Light & Power and tells the customers if they don’t pay, their power is being shut off. 

They leave a call back number of 877-432-9325, which tells them to press prompt #1, that connects them to “George”, who states he is from Lowell Light & Power. However, the City of Lowell does not have an employee by that name.

This is purely a scam where “George” is trying to get money from customers of Lowell Light and Power. The City of Lowell has expressed that you SHOULD NOT send George any money.

If you have questions about your bill, contact Lowell Light & Power or Lowell City Hall.
