Endesa and Galp have received complaints The mischief worsens with the crisis. The latest scam that is spreading these months is being carried out by salespeople subcontracted by the country's large supply companies, who steal personal data from mailboxes and switch customers between electricity, water, gas or telephone companies. As El Confidencial Digital has learned , the 'modus operandi' of these commercials consists of stealing personal data from the correspondence in mailboxes, especially in homes that they have previously detected are empty . The next step is to fill out a new form with these data to formalize a supply contract - for example, electricity, water, gas or telephone - with another competing company and thus add one more client to your personal portfolio.

These employees are subcontracted by large service companies to carry out commercial tasks and work for others. Their salary depends, therefore, on the number of clients they manage to register, which has led many of them to present false contracts in the desperation of the crisis . Customers become aware of the scam when they  Middle East Mobile Number List receive the first consumer bill , in which they realize that they are being charged for the service of a company that they have not contracted at any time. Iberdrola, Endesa and Galp are taking measures Supply companies have very few resources at their disposal to verify that the contract sent by the salesperson is false.



Only if the client reports the case or the company is not able to read the meter for more than three months because the home is empty can they intuit that the contract presents some indication of falsity . And large companies are on alert. If they detect irregularities, they begin an in-depth investigation of the origin of the contract, they investigate the marketing company that is carrying out these commercial tasks. Once the investigations have been carried out , if it is proven that the contract is false , the salesperson and the company they work for immediately stop collaborating with the supply company. Even if the falsifications are considerable , the scam can end up in court .The Government and the European Union are currently debating the convenience of creating an entity of this type to take over the real estate 'hole' that has dragged down banking.
