Con Edison Issues Warning to Customers

Criminals Are Impersonating the Company to Get Money or Your Personal Information

 

To Our Customers,

Con Edison doesn’t accept payments via Venmo, Zelle, CashApp or Bitcoin. Hang up on anyone calling and asking for Con Edison payments by these methods.

Asking for ID isn’t rude, it’s safe. If someone comes to your door, claiming to be from Con Edison, call 1-800-75-CONED (1-800-752-6633) and confirm the employee’s name and ID number.

Make payments safely. We accept online payments here and here.

We will never ask to see your bill. Never share your account number or show your bill to someone at your door.

If you’re not sure an email is really from Con Edison, don’t click on any links.
