The Australian Energy Regulator (AER) has received reports of a scam, where a caller claiming to be an AER employee requests bank details to deposit a Government rebate for power due to the current COVID situation.

If you receive contact from the AER, it’s important to know that the AER would never ask you for your bank account details.

Anyone who receives such a call should not provide any personal or financial information and hang up immediately.

If you or anyone you know have received unusual contact, please visit www.scamwatch.gov.au to report scams and learn more about what to do if scammers target you.

Meter 2 Cash Solutions as agent for your Body Corporate/Building Owner is actively following up with gate electricity retailers to ensure that rebates are applied on your Body Corporate/Building Owner’s account and therefore able to be passed on to customers.
