*** SCAM ALERT ***

We have been made aware of a scam going around to our members in our service area. This particular scam has unknown individuals contacting members, insisting they are with Grayson - Collin EC. Within these phone calls, they are stating "your GCEC account has a credit on it and the company will be taking over payments on the account for the next few months and no payments are needed to be made to us." If your account does have a credit on it, this is not something we would contact you about. The credit will simply be applied to your bill(s) accordingly.

If you have any concern that someone may be phishing please do not hesitate to contact us at 903-482-7100 to verify the reason of contact. We are always happy to speak with our members.
