Scam artists may be targeting Fulton County water and sewer customers, calling them at home, asking for credit card numbers and threatening to shut off services if the customers don’t pay up immediately. It’s a trick, says Fulton County Water and Sewer Billing, and anyone who gets such a phone call should call law enforcement authorities immediately.

Fulton Water and Sewer Billing does not accept payment by telephone and does not contact its customers in the evening, the office says.
