Community: LACoDA Warns of “Robo-Call” Banking Scam

Banking Information Request Scam

(LA County District Attorney News Release)

District Attorney Steve Cooley warned consumers of a new “robo-call scam” aimed at getting confidential banking information from unsuspecting victims.

The “robo-calls” play recorded messages claiming to be from major banks. The messages state there is a problem with the banking network and ask for verification of banking account information, including credit and debit card numbers, along with personal identification numbers (PINs).

“Consumers need to be extremely wary of telephone calls requesting sensitive information about banking or credit cards,” Cooley said. “Legitimate banks and financial institutions do not call their customers to request personal identifying information or discuss banking network problems.”

The District Attorney urged consumers to contact law enforcement if they believe they are victims of the fraud.

The latest Consumer alert is available on the Los Angeles District Attorney’s website at

Advisory: (So Cal Edison News Release) With High Winds in Forecast, Reminder to Never Approach or Touch a Downed Power Line
Hi Robert Klomburg,
Southern California Edison News Release:

With High Winds in Forecast, Southern California Edison Reminds Customersto Never Approach or Touch a Downed Power Line

ROSEMEAD, Calif., Dec. 15, 2011 — With high winds forecast through Saturday in many areas, Southern California Edison (SCE) reminds its customers outages may occur – and to never approach or touch downed power lines.

If you see a downed line or dangling wire — even if it appears not to be live — don’t touch or approach it and call 911 immediately.

SCE is reaching out to local elected officials and community leaders to establish clear channels of communication. The most up-to-date information will be shared with the community throughout the storm.
SCE also will provide the latest information about outages at

www.sce.com

and on Twitter at
www.Twitter.com/SoCalEdison @SoCalEdison

The National Weather Service is forecasting strong winds in Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Riverside, Orange, Santa Barbara and Ventura counties through Saturday, including in the mountains,
passes and canyons.

Customer safety is a top priority for SCE. Here are important tips to keep in mind:

• Watch for traffic signals that may be out. Approach those intersections as four-way stops.

• Make sure you have a battery-operated radio and flashlights. Check the batteries to make sure they are fresh. Use flashlights for lighting during a power outage; do not use candles because
they may pose a significant fire hazard.

• Do not use any equipment inside that is designed for outdoor heating or outdoor cooking. Such equipment can emit carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.

• If you use a generator, place it outdoors and plug individual appliances directly into the generator, using a heavy-duty extension cord. Connecting generators directly to household circuits creates “backfeed,” which is dangerous to repair crews.

• Leave the doors of your refrigerator and freezer closed to keep your food as fresh as possible. Place blocks of ice inside to help keep food cold. Check food carefully for signs of spoilage.

• Check on your neighbors to make sure everyone is safe.

A video and fact sheet about power line safety is available at: www.sce.com/powerlines. The information is available in Spanish at: www.sce.com/cables.
