SCAM ALERT: Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative members have reported a recent increase in attempted scams.

These fraudulent activities include scammers posing as Bluebonnet representatives both over the phone and in person, making false claims about account issues and high billing errors, and claiming to sell solar energy systems.

Bluebonnet employees will never come to your home requesting information regarding your account, to discuss your bill, or to ask for immediate payment. Bluebonnet employees wear uniforms with Bluebonnet’s name and logo and have vehicles with the co-ops logo on the doors. Employees of Bluebonnet’s contractors wear their company’s uniform and drive vehicles with their company’s name and decal identifying them as a Bluebonnet contractor.

If a Bluebonnet member has not received a reminder in the mail or a courtesy call about their account, and someone claiming to represent Bluebonnet calls demanding an immediate payment, do not pay, and do not provide the caller with personal information, banking or credit card account information.

Bluebonnet asked members to report any attempted scams to local law enforcement and Bluebonnet member services at 800-842-7708. To get tips about recognizing scams, visit bluebonnet.coop/scams.
