Actually, it's far more likely that your electric company (surely you
meant water company?) sold your name and address to a marketing firm who
forwarded to one of the fly-by-night so-called water main/sewer insurance
companies. Your electric or water company doesn't otherwise give a ****.


Nope, it came in an envelope from Florida Power and Light. I've gotten
them in the past from other sources too. Mostly a scam.

I'd double-check the envelope. It's not uncommon for those "insurance"
companies to use a utility logo on the envelope; the 'water line
maintenance insurance' mailings have the local water company listed on the
envelope, but it's not from the water company.

Exactly. I almost bit because it was cheap insurance. Then I googled and found the payout
wasn't worth it.
