Crews aboard the Hughes helicopters will inspect overhead transmission lines for Jersey Central Power and LIght for up to 10 days, starting October 13.

The utility bill scam is back, targeting Jersey Central Power & Light customers. It's more sophisticated, but still bears the telltale flaw of a demand, by phone, out of the blue, for money.
