Random I owe money email

[Rouge]

I'm with div. Whilst it sounds like a scam. I've known of people using old mail to create electricity accounts and letting it go into default and not paying. I know this because it happened to me. They used my name (even though it was spelt wrong) and a random DOB. It's is why you should ALWAYS have your mail redirected after you move. So I would follow it up with the actual electricity company. Do not use any debt collector website. If it is a scam they can get your details.

Thanks I'll call them direct tomorrow and find out what's going on.

We've recently been contacted by debt collectors (long story, we don't owe anyone anything ) but they always contacted us via phone, never email! Seems very dodgy! Definitely give them a call
