This sounds strangely similar, I had a this problem a year or two ago, Turned out the person, moved the miners to point to their pool and claimed it was someone else kicking up a stink with power usage and had them cut off.

I'm not saying you have the same problem, but just be sure you know who your dealing with, I was double crossed, but they paid in the end.

my advice, move the equipment FAST! even if this is real, dont be caught up in other peoples disputes.
