SCAM ALERT: STOP, CALL AND VERIFY

William J. Cloudt Rodeo, District 4

Unfortunately, scammers take advantage of opportunities during times like these and we would like to remind our members to stay alert. Please be aware, these scam artists can be very convincing. Never give your credit card number or other personal information over the phone without verifying the call.

The Board of Trustees meets the fourth Tuesday of the month at 1:00 p.m. in the Cooperative boardroom.

If you receive a call that asks you to pay using a third-party system, or at all appears suspicious, please hang up and contact us at 800-950-2667 or 575-546-8838. Do not call the number the caller gives you. By calling us directly, you can talk to a service representative who will confirm your bill and let you know of any problems with your account.
