I opened my email today (2/21/2024), a little before 10:50 am. In the email, I had an invoice from "Geek Squad", indicating that my Geek Squad subscription "automatically renewed" as the trual period ended. It also indicated that my "respected card" was charged accordingly, and that I should call 1-888-432-0149 to dispute and cancel the subscription. When I called the above number to cancel, the person on the other end of telephone wanted me to use my personal computer to cancel, but but I did not have one. He then asked what type of cellphone I had and I asked why, and I became a little apprehensive. He said he needed my card number to cancel the account and I refused to give it, since the invoice teference my "respected card", would be charged. The person said since you will not cooperate I can not help you. I advised him then that maybe the "authorities" can assist him with my request. It sounded like the person on the other end of the telephone said "**** OFF", and hung the telephone up. I saved a copy of the invoice, but when I went back to check the email again. I found no record of the email. I checked with my bank and no money had been withdrawn from my account in the amount of $438.00. The description in the email invoice was "Geek Squad band", "quanty-2 windows devices". Amount $399, tax 10%, total due $438.00. NOTE: If the item cost was $399, then 10% of $399 would have been $39.90, making the total cost $438.90, and not $438.

“MIROSOFT” is a scam trying to get your bank account number! Disguised as Best Buy Geek Squad they fixed my computer remotely and loaded software for malware and blocker. Never once did they correct me when discussed a prior call with “Geek Squad” them the day before, told them about my maintenance agreement I signed when I purchased my computer at Best Buy. The entire time believing they were Geek Squad. Then they wanted a payment of $799 for 3 year maintenance agreement by check to “MIROSOFT LLC” that they scanned into my computer and then deleted. Since, I have locked my bank account, stopped payment on the check and Best Buy is cleaning my laptop. Beware MIROSOFT LLC

RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM GEEK SQUAD STATING THANK YOU FOR YOUR PAYMENT OF $499.00 TRANSACTION ID 6WE3EWRDFRET ON JAN 10, 2024 FOR INTERNET SECURITY. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY DEALINGS WITH GEEK SQUAD NOR HAS ANYONE IN MY HOUSEHOLD. WHEN I CALLED THE NUMBER ON THE RECEIPT 805-254-4514 THE GENTLEMEN WANTED ME TO GIVE HIM ACCESS TO MY CELL PHONE. I INFORMED HIM THAT I DO NOT HAVE NOR HAVE I EVER USED THEIR SERVICES. HE STATED THAT THERE HAVE BEEN 3 CHARGES ($129.00, $399.00 AND NOW $499.00) MADE.

First I got this email from Matt Frick saying he was with Geek Squad. [email protected]. He said that I had taken out a subscription for tech service at the Geek Squad. There were several phone numbers they used in the various communications. Then I received an email from a "fake" PayPal asking if I wanted to modify my subscription. I called the number and immediately then knew it was a scam. I purchased my computer from Staples and not Best Buy. The Geek Squad is ONLY at Best Buy. The scammers didn't know that, so I told them that and that I was calling the authorities on them. That was the last communication I had with them. I have a page to attach with a copy of all their correspondence. I hope you can put them out of business. Again, I have copies of all their emails that I am happy to send you if you will provide an email. Thank you.

I received an email claiming to be Geek Squad I think is a scam. I never used them. It is a renewal. It stated I set up an auto renewal I don't know what they are talking about. Coverage will run out on November 27th. That is today. Charging $301.97. It states call 833-273-7288 to cancel. I called the number. A man answered Geek Squad. He asked for my invoice number. I gave the number at the top of the email. Order confirmation number 6166673419. I questioned him. He said if any money is taken we will issue a refund. I did not give him a chance to ask for information. He hung up on me. I don't want this to happen to anyone else. This is the time of the year they come with this junk.

Email saying I owed the money for my computer that is bought and paid for why would I pay again. Then he said it was for a years sub for fraud protection . I told him I would never ordered that being on disability and no money coming in. And told him firmly what an inconvenience it was to bed 8ver to get my computer plugged in. He then said ok ma'am I'll just do it from here just turn your computer on. I then said well I'm not letting you take control of my computer and he hung up. Now I'm scared to use it now what ?

The scammer email said I had pre-paid $255 out of my bank account for a product I did not buy. They offered a phone number to call to cancel or change.

I did not call. Obviously they were wanting me to reveal my bank account number to "refund" my $255.

I tried copying a copy of email but It would't go through They said they will take $379.99 out of my account tomorrow November 7th 2023 if I don't pay today

I have ID # of transaction but no other information. They don't even say where they are from I was assuming USA. They say it is for a service of computer support. I called the 818-574-6077 to cancel this order but it rang and then hung up after 2 minutes of no words.
