Hi i would like too warn others of AVG financial company, AVG started contacting me last year about my previouly credit card slaying that they could get me a 0 interests really begging for my business, they said they would help me pay off my credit card,by sending me a check to go toward my balance and i would start seeing this checks in a couple of months, I have not received a single check yet ,they first did a Balance transfer 0 interest and put my balance on two major Credit Cards (Chase and Capital 1) I wasnt happy with having two major Credit Cards so they said not to wary they would get me another Card in put all the Balance on that one Card, Isaid OK but when I started receiving my statement in the mail, i am receiving a statement from all three Credit Card Company so now am paying three time the amount something went wrong I thought , so i tried too call AVG and guess what i could not speck too many of the people that was calling me when they wonted my business ,I thought that was pretty bad.I am still trying to figure out how too get out of this mess, I hope this will help someone else from getting scam.

I was told my computer had a virus. This scammer sold me an AVG virus protection program for $300 in Feb. 2015. They took control of my computer...not sure they fixed anything. They called about 2-3 more times to take over my computer & fix it. I kept getting weird messages in pop ups: QWX (or QUWX) has quit working...plus other messages. I finally got suspicious in Oct. 2015 because when they called me my call somehow got transferred to American Squad & they wanted to sell me IP protection for $200. I said okay & then got more suspicious when the first scammer called me the next day & things started to not make sense. I got a receipt from American Squad in my email...it had a phone #, so I called it & got a plumbing company. I then called the real AVG & gave them the license # that I was sold....they told me it was invalid. I immediately went to my bank & cancelled all credit & debit cards & shut down my checking account. I filed a fraud report & got the $200 back. Boy did I learn my lesson! I had to have my computer reformatted & had to establish a new checking account & new credit & debit cards. What a nightmare! My local computer repair guy told me that the scammers would keep calling me....they did. I told them repeatedly to not call back & that I knew they were scammers...didn't faze them. My computer guy told me to tell them that I no longer had this computer...that I had changed to a Mac (Mac cannot be remotely accessed). That solved the phone call issue. People beware & forewarned....don't fall for this! The first scammer used my debit card to charge me, but the American Squad wanted to directly take the money from my checking account...like a check.
