Is the company "Universal Energy" a scam? My wife gave them our account information.?

Question

This company "Universal Energy" came to our door and had my wife sign a paper releasing our account information. I'm concerned they may be a scam and might be link to an identity theft scam or something.

Answer 1

They market natural gas and maybe electricity. The salesman  can use your account information to authorize the agreement. If you have concerns I would contact the company and register a compliant.

If you have concerns after discussing with the company see web-link below on advise from the Ontario Energy Board. The second link has OEB contact information.
