Officials with MidAmerican Energy are warning their social media followers about a FAKE Facebook profile pretending to be MidAmerican Energy. On the utility company’s real page, officials say the fake page looks exactly like their business page, except that it is a scammer behind a personal profile, sending friend requests and direct messages with fake information.
The profile also has a small amount of “friends,” a different URL or @ name and very few posts.
