AEP Spoof Call Scam? How to Spot the Red Flags - +1 866-715-3526 ((866) 715-3526)
Summary — +18667153526
Expert Opinion
Watch out for spoofed calls claiming to be your electric provider. Callers often pretend to be AEP or a related utility, threaten service disconnection, and demand Social Security numbers or payment info. Never share personal data, especially SSNs, over the phone unless you’ve dialed the official number yourself. Verify the call by hanging up and calling the utility’s official customer‑service line listed on your bill or website. If a voicemail asks for a payment, log in to your account online first. Report repeated or aggressive calls to your carrier and the FTC to help curb these scams.

It is amusing that scammers would target me with a utility bill scam, given that I do not pay the electric bill and my family does not even use the mentioned utility company.
Although I didn't answer, a message about a late bill was left; however, when I called back, they requested sensitive information, which raised concerns, especially since our bill had already been paid, leading me to block the number.
When calling back, it was claimed that the account was past due, despite this being incorrect.

The call was from someone claiming to be from american electric power, or so it seem.
AEP is reportedly using this number to remind customers about imminent payment deadlines, threatening service disconnection, and utilizing scare tactics such as mentioning a service order at the customer's house.
After verifying the authenticity of the call with Appalachian Power, it was confirmed that this number is being used for scam purposes. As such, I have been advised to be cautious and never provide sensitive information in response to suspicious calls.

AEP
Apparently, as an AEP customer, I recieve warnings whenever I log into my account about potential scammers and the importance of not divulging my SSN or name to anyone who calls, especailly if they should allready know my name
The caller requested my social security number
It's posible that legit numbers can be spoofed, probably AEP is aware of this issuse
This is not a legitimate number, it's not even AEP's official toll free number, you can find it by googling, AEP never ask for your social security number, even when you are late.
A voicemail was left claiming my electric bill with SWEPCO was overdue and scheduled for disconnection.
