You're kidding right? This is one of the lowest IQ attempts at fraud I've ever seen. They know what a reasonable average yearly consumption is for a particular household in your particular area simply by comparing. If your meter or your description of what the meter says deviates too much from that average or if a measured output deviates too much from a measured input then they are going to investigate the cause of that deviation.

Today utility meters radio broadcast consumption information constantly to neighborhood data collection points. They can compare electric to water and gas to see if nobody is home.

What's next? Everyone willingly carrying a tracking and communication device?

You can leave your phone at home. However, tracking your utility use to compare your usage or judge if you're home or not is another story.

Can't avoid utility meter spying or doorbells watching. Orwell warned us.

>your utility
It is not your utility, it is the utility you are leasing from the utility company.

Then go off grid and stop using any utilities at all.

Just install a solar panel. Some cities even buy your extra power
