Scam alert tonight Tuesday.
#SCAM ALERT: (Please Share) An elderly Christchurch resident, who lives alone, has received a threatening phone call tonight from a woman pretending to represent Meridian Energy from a subsidy company called “Power Online.” The scammer said she would cut off the 90-year-old's power at 9.30pm unless she paid $160.00. Please contact police if this happens to you or anyone you know... Her daughter has informed the phone company... I'll discuss this tomorrow on the radio show.
Chris Lynch.
