EAC Email Scam Alert: Fake Unpaid Bills

The EAC (Electricity Authority of Cyprus) is warning the public about a new email scam. Scammers are sending misleading messages claiming electricity bills are unpaid.

The messages are titled ‘FINAL NOTICE: Unpaid Account ΗΗΑ 11256285404 – Risk of Interruption’ and urge recipients to click a link to make a payment. The EAC emphasizes that these messages do not originate from them and are a phishing attempt.

Consumers are urged to be especially careful with emails containing links or attachments.
