RG&E scam?

RG&E sucks for many reasons, but there are plenty of other posts on that. This though, I am pretty sure the people calling me are not legit in any way based solely on the tactics. They call and call and call. They keep telling me to go get my bill and they will walk me through... something? They talk about the avoiding a rate hike. The rate hike and finding a better rate sounds like stuff I actually want to know more about but I don't know these people calling. They are extremely pushy. I told this lady no and hung up. She tried to call back. I blocked the number, she called on another. and another. and another. I blocked 4 separate numbers in under 5 minutes. No one carries around their electric bill when they go to work or the store, so insisting I go get my bill RIGHT NOW just is not happening no matter how much they yell at me. (And they do actually yell at me, which really is just more proof they are not legit. They are so unprofessional, how can they be legit? Why would someone actually trying to look out for my best interests go straight to high pressure sales mode?) I am very certain they are a scam, but I don't know what the scam actually is. What do they have to gain from getting my energy bill information?
