Sarasota, Florida -- A scam preying on your money appears to be making its way to the Tampa Bay area. The caller claims to be with Florida Power & Light and threatens to turn off your power if you don't pay up.

As a small business owner, Eco Hair Design owner Candy Roberts knows every penny counts. So when the phone rang Friday afternoon the caller made Roberts suspicious.

"Why $299?" Roberts remembers asking the man on the other line.
