UGI Warns Customers About Sponsored Ad Scams Targeting Emergency Calls

UGI Utilities warns of sponsored ad scams using fake numbers for gas leak reports. Only call 800-276-2722 for emergencies—service is always free. Stay safe.

This scam directly endangers public safety by delaying emergency response to gas leaks—situations where minutes count. Natural gas leaks can lead to explosions, fires, or health hazards, and fraudulent calls redirecting customers to scammers instead of trained professionals create life-threatening delays. Financially, victims are being tricked into paying for services that should be free, exploiting vulnerable moments. The widespread nature of sponsored online ads means anyone searching for utility help could fall victim, highlighting the critical need for vigilance and verification of official contact information through trusted sources like www.ugi.com.
