How to Spot a DTE Energy Phone Scam
Summary — +13133795003
Expert Opinion
Watch out for calls claiming to be DTE Energy offering free meter upgrades—these are classic scams. Verify any request by contacting DTE directly using the official number on your bill, not the callback they provide. Hang up if the caller pressures you for a quick appointment or asks for personal info. Never trust caller ID alone; spoofing is common. Report suspicious numbers to your phone carrier and the Federal Trade Commission. Stay skeptical of unsolicited offers and keep a record of the call details for future reference.
