We received two separate "invoices" from Geek Squad for Internet Security Plus, 3 year license auto renewed. Each invoice was for $286.43 and came via [email protected]

The invoices were sent thru a legitimate company (QuickBooks) and the business allegedly sending the invoices is legitimate. They even used the Geek Squad emblem.

I received an email from “Geek Squad” telling me that my windows firewall subscription had been renewed for $349.59 and with confirmation number given. There was a number listed 18059954237 to cancel subscription. When I called it and told the man named “James Morgan” told me to call back after I leave work and have access to my home computer to receive my refund. Then he asked what kind of browser I used. Luckily I did not give him any credit card information and when I looked at my bank account, no such charge had been taken out.

Phising

Received this email an called the number to deny the charge. Man was very aggressive says that I absolutely authorized the purchase. He then said he could credit my card but I had to exit out of outlook and load google chrome. He then asked me to enter 9115.us and at this point I asked why he couldn't just email me the cancellation letter and he said this was just their policy. Knew that there was no way that could be accurate. Didn't click enter. Hung up on him. During my conversation he was very confrontational, which besides the gmail account the email came from and his ridiculous claims, I should have caught on. But it was early in the morning before my brain started to function and I panicked when I saw the email and the amount.

I received a text today, 03-03-22, Reads as follows:" Your subscription from Geek Squad has been renewed amount 199.99 debited invoice no.GCK7055. Invoice date 03 March 2022. Gesquad support +18067172124." I've never had geek squad so I called the 806 number to find out what it was. The individual that answered could barely be understood becuz of accent. I gave him the invoice number at which point he looked it up. Could not even remotely understand him. I briefly said I've never had that service. At which point I understood the word Cancel. I said yes cancel. He then stated I needed to fill out a cancellation form. I laughed at him and hung up and am contacting you immediately after. Obviously they were looking for information of mine so i wanted to report to ScamPulse.com ASAP. The number the text came from was 8722381910. The other number,18067172124 was the contact number ;Please contact me anytime with any questions. Thanks

Email I received was notice that my order for Two Year Premium Subscription Geek Squad, costing $736.93, was received. Furthermore, it said payment for this order was received and authorized by Clara Staples, account team colleague/Sr. Business Analyst. I did not order this product. I did not call back phone number 855-917-0484.

Hopefully, the ScamPulse.com can track this down.

Thank you, **** ******

I do not know more. The title of the email said refund status but when I opened it says it’s about the renewal of my subscription and my account as been charged. It doesn’t indicate any actual real info and I googled it and it is indeed a scam.

Says thanks for subscription, has been successfully renewed per my request (did not request and did not use my work email which is where this came to). Have been billed $299 for 2 year subscription. In small print, it says if I did not order or request, please contact them, the funds will be taken from my account within 24 hours of notice of email. Will not refund after money has been taken from account.

They were saying that my membership is expired and in order to

Renew I would be billed $489.99 if I had questions to contact their number so I did when trying to ask for an explanation I got hung up 3 times bc they didn’t have any actual response for me considering I don’t have a computer and much less I’ve never used any geek squad services and usually if it were really geek squad they actually try to help u and explain things to you but these ppl are imposters pls remove them before they steal $$ from

Ppl!

I received an email that appears to be from Geek Squad. I believe it is a scam. I probably should not have clicked on the email. Billing for computer protection. $399 for 2 years. It gave a phone number to call to cancel 844-678-9561. I do not use Geek Squad. I did not call the phone number. To initiate a full refund call within 48 hours. It gives a bogus order status number. I do not have the email it came from.

I got an email with a "receipt" from Geek Squad from renewing a subscription for LiveSafe™(3 Years Subscription). Of course I never signed up for this, and the email itself doesn't look completely legit; the logo is different than what I've seen before. I won't be contacting the phone number listed and will delete the email.

I received an email from "Geek Squad" saying there was an automatic payment of $452 and if I wanted to cancel to call the number listed. I called and a guy who had an accent from India said in order to cancel I had to go to www.teamviewer.com and he instructed me to download the free service. I questioned him and said I did not want any further subscriptions. He said if I wanted to cancel I needed to do this. The website appears to be a remote access to your computer. When I questioned him he got flustered and I asked if this was a scam and that I would turn them in to the BBB. He then hung up on me. I did take a photo of the email thankfully because somehow they deleted or retracted it as the email disappeared from my email.
