A young woman with a lanyard knocked my door mentioning that she needed to see my last electricity bill to check "something". I recently switched to Boston City supplier so I thought it could be related and I trusted it. I am new in Boston and English is not my first language so I didn't understand everything she said. It was a bit sketchy all the time.
Anyway, I know I should have not, but I showed her my last eBill, without showing my name or my account ID. Only the meter ID was shown in the part I showed (I realized later). She took a look at the bill for only 3 seconds, gave me a hand-out from a company called Atlantic Energy, and then left. I didn't sign or fill out anything, no phone calls, and didn't take photos of my bill.
After, I read here that this is a common thing around the area. Should I be concerned? Can they switch my supplier just like that, or unlikely?
