CHENNAI: Have you got an SMS asking you to contact a specific number to pay your unpaid EB bills or your power will be disconnected? Beware, it may be a phishing scam to empty your bank balance.
Chennai residents over the last week have been getting fake messages from unknown numbers with a common template, saying their power supply will be disconnected by 10:30 pm as their bills have not been paid. The message says it is from ‘EB office’ and asks to contact the phone number given in it.
