Received call from this number. Didn't answer. Didn't leave any message spam spam scam scam

I'm past due on my electric bill. Got a call from this number saying if I didn't pay the bill in 45 minutes my power would be shut off. they would not take a credit card for payment, only a MoneyPak from Walgreens for payment. called repeatedly. I thought it was legit since I was past due but thankfully the clerk at Walgreens questioned me so I called the power company directly only to find out they DO accept credit cards for payment, my power will NOT be turned off any time soon and that this is fraud. When the scammer called again I said "Can you please hold on a minute. I'm at the police station and they would like to talk to you." I heard a click and no one has called back since. Other caller ID numbers were just 210-5, whatever that means. SCAM SCAM SCAM
