(Chicago, IL) — Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul’s office is suing an alternative retail electric supplier vender. A lawsuit filed in Cook County court against Southeast Energy Consultants claims the vendor deceived customers into switching from their public utility companies to more expensive contracts with alternative energy suppliers. The suit said SEC would tell consumers they would save money on their electric bills by switching, resulting in Illinois residents being defrauded into inadvertently purchasing high-cost electricity supply services. Raoul’s lawsuit seeks to stop SEC’s illegal conduct and recover the hundreds of thousands of dollars in increased costs Illinois consumers have paid.
