CREVE COEUR, Ill. – A scam similar to others is now starting to hit Creve Coeur.
Creve Coeur Police say they’ve received a number of complaints about people claiming to be employees of “the Illinois Water Department,” going door to door claiming they need to get in to change the water meter.
Police say the village is not changing water meters at this time, so it’s a scam.
They say if you encounter someone trying to do this, call police immediately.
A number of similar scams have hit the area lately, especially involving electric utilities.
