Got email today stating my geek squad annual maintenance is ending today 12/15/20 and they will be charging me 299.00 for the annual fee! I have no geek squad account. Tried calling the number; of course no answer! Responded back to email that I will be reporting them and that they better not charge me of this bogus scam! Of course, in the email it says responding to them will not stop the charge!

Please get these criminals!

CAN WE STOP THIS FRAUD

On November 19, 2020, at about 10am EST – I called the Geek Squad technical support to ask that they not renew my membership, since I am being treated for Prostrate Cancer and could not afford it. Everything went well for a while, then the technical support person said I they would give me back the money that they had billed my checking account for, and also a rebated from last year since I do not use the computer for business. The amount was for $350.00 and he had control of my computer. The amount was ready to go into my checking account, and for some reason, when I typed in the amount it came out to $3, 500.00 instead and the technical guy started to panic and said he would lose his job. I told him to just change the amount, but he replied that he could not do that. He recommended I get four American Express gift cards each for $500.00 that I did after much running around. He stayed on my speaker cell phone for nearly 3 hours, I got the cards then read the numbers off to him, and never heard from him again. I am out $2, 000.00 that I can’t afford. And the $3, 500 that was put into my account, was gone at end of day. This is a crime, I am a 75 year old Vietnam Veteran suffering from prostrate cancer, and expected to be treated better than this. The tech person who had the West Michigan phone number of 1-616-371-4550 and 1-616-647-3257 that he called from. Please help, I have also filed this complaint to the Michigan Attorney Generals Office.
my name is Arthur B. Fox, pittsburgh, PA.

Received email saying my free subscription for PC Computer World had expired and I am to be billed $149.99. I never had a subscription. I spoke with one person, “Mike” I believe from India – phone is out of Deerfield, Wisconsin. I had to interrupt my first call with them due to business, and they pursued me quite diligently to be able to put the moneys back into my account. This was far too complex – and strange — to be a normal cancellation process. Companies never pursue someone so steadfastly to return money to an account. I called them back. When the phone was answered, there was no company name – just “hello”. I told them I would report them to the Better Business Bureau. Beware!

Received via email – [censored] phishing – beware – don’t call them, don’t unsubscribe.

Thank you for the completion of 1 year Defender Protection Plan. If you have any question or want to cancel this subscription Please call on our Toll-Free Number +1(888)604-0445

Received e-mail that I was being charged an annual fee in excess of what was normally charged. His name was Shane Harper, sounded not like that name. Middle East or India. Phone # he used was 213-419-2567. He said he could refund more than we were charged since we were such good customer. Wanted me to verify that refund went threw, but our bank system said was down for maintenance so he will call back tomorrow to continue. Something didn’t sound right after call so checked my cards and NO charge on any of them!! Oh the billing Dept # we got was1 888-898-8723.

I received a email saying my account was going to be charged $399.99, Well I do not have a account so I called and it sounded like there were people taking in the background. He asked me to log into my computer-I told him that I do not have a computer. With that he hung up on me. I hit the redial button by accident and hung up. Next thing is I get a incoming call and he said his name is Michael and he can help me, I just need to get on my computer! Same scenario, he too hangs up
