Many Ohioans are afraid to open their energy bills after the spate of cold weather Ohio has seen in recent weeks. Dan Tierney with the Ohio Attorney General's office says online scammers are using that fear to prey on Ohioans. Tierney says 30 residents have reported receiving suspicious online bills for energy usage during the past couple of weeks.
Tierney says if Ohioans get this email, they should report it to the attorney general's office and above all, do not reply with any information.
