EPB warns of phishing email scam
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — EPB is warning locals of a new email scam claiming to be from EPB about a “new webmail platform” and asking EPB Business Customers to “upgrade” their email account.
They say this message is not from EPB.
They say the scam pressures you to act quickly (“avoid interruption”), it includes suspicious links or “Upgrade Now” buttons, and it may come from an unfamiliar or incorrect email address.
They ask individuals to not click any links or provide personal information.
They say EPB will never ask you to share passwords via email, click a link to “upgrade” your account, or provide sensitive information through unsolicited messages.
If you receive this email, delete it immediately, EPB says. If you’re unsure about a message, contact EPB directly.
