"Vallejo Water Company" Phone Scam Advisory
The City of Vallejo recently received reports of a potential scam involving their water billing service. Scammers have been posing as "Vallejo Water Company" employees, demanding immediate payment from customers, or their water service would be disconnected or shut off.
These calls are fraudulent and not from the City of Vallejo. City of Vallejo customers with delinquent accounts will always receive advance disconnection notification from the City, typically by mail. The City of Vallejo
never sends a single notification one hour or less before disconnect.
