We have identified potential scams involving individuals posing as Southeastern Electric Cooperative. Southeastern Electric does not authorize third parties to collect deposits or initiate/transfer service on our behalf. We will not ask for credit card information over the phone and will not direct members to go to other businesses to purchase gift cards or make a payment at a non SEC office location. If you think you are being contacted by a scammer, hang up and call our direct line: 1-800-333-2859 to reach a Southeastern Electric employee.
