Tips to Keep Customers Safe from Scams
Potential threats or scams can appear in a variety of forms, including phone calls and e-mails.  By following some of these simple tips below, customers can help avoid being the victim of a scam.

1. Never give personal information, including Social Security numbers and banking information, to unconfirmed sources. NIPSCO only asks for a Social Security number when a customer is applying for new service or to validate an account holder when a customer calls to obtain account information, complete a transaction or service-related request over the phone.
2. If you believe you have been the victim of a scam, contact 911 as well as your local banking institution or credit card company if applicable.
3. Legitimate bill assistance programs are available to qualifying customers. For more information on these offerings, visit NIPSCO.com/PaymentAssistance.
