The Ramona Sheriff's Substation also want you to be aware of scammers posing as SDG&E employees. The imposters threaten to shut off electric and gas service unless payment is made immediately. They are telling customers to purchase pre-paid cash or credit cards and call another phone number, where fake utility employees then get information from the cards and remove the cash value. If you get this type of call, HANG UP and call SDG&E at (800) 411-7343.
