Hydro-Québec warns customers about suspicious calls

A number of people recently reported having received suspicious phone calls from persons claiming to be Hydro-Québec employees. These individuals are using Hydro-Québec's name illegally.

Customers who receive such phone calls should write down as much information as possible. An investigation is currently under way.

Hydro-Québec urges the public to be vigilant and refrain from disclosing personal information.
