Type of a scam Phishing

I received an email invoice from Geek Squad for $384.97 for an auto renewal for their software. I was not suspicious because it was about time for it. I did not want to renew so I called to cancel it. They needed me to download TeamViewer to uninstall the program and refund me the money. They uninstalled the program and had me log in to my account and accept the refund. It didn't go through the first bank, so tried the second. Didn't go through. So they asked if I had a credit card and to log into it. I began to get suspicious and said no. They said that was the only way they could do the refund. I saidd no. When they were installing the TeamViewer I had to put my computer login in. At the bottom I remember seeing a reset password area but we didn't use it. They began to argue about logging into my cards to get the refund. The more I questioned them the more defensive they got. They told me if I uninstalled the TeamViewer It would mess up my Windows. I asked them to quit using the TeamViewer and it kept working. The computer then shut down and the guy hung up. When I tried to turn my computer back on it will no longer take my password. I now believe they have access to my bank accounts, have hacked my computer and changed my password and I am more than certain they are a scam.

I received an email stating it was time for an automatic renewal of geek squad. Said I did not have to contact the company unless I wanted a change & this action would occur 1/12/2023. I tried phoning the number they gave me on 1/13/2023 (18053176249) & got no answer. I called 1/16/2023 & told an Indian speaking man I did not request a renewal did not have an account & they were not to attempt to take money from my account. He asked if I had a computer & I said yes but gave no other information, repeated I did not request nor have a geek squad account. Then I hung up.

We received a email from Geek Squad for a subscription for Best Buy Membership. We never have had a membership to Best Buy. We called the phone number twice to get them to cancel this. The phone number we call was 808-229-3781. The amount the they said we would be charged was $417.00. Both times we called they said they did not have a computer to cancel it. I thought this sounded suspicious. We have not been charged but we are watching our accounts very closely.

I received and email about my Geek Squad subscription expiring. Time for renewal and that my credit card was being charged $299.00. I called the number provided and the person I was speaking with continued to walk me through the process and then continued to insist that I use my online banking. I do use Geek Squad the logo looked the same. But, no i do not use online banking. Then once i realized this must be a fraudulent thing. I tried to send the email to my folder, but a fight began between me and whoever was into my computer. They fought a good fight and won. They continued to try to punch in my password over and over again. I called my bank and they told me what to do and I had to have my computer and phone cleaned.

This was regarding an automatic debit. I called the Settlement Dept. to cancel the debit. I explained I had never used Geek Squad. He said I would need to file a cancellation form and that I needed to be on Google and he would need to take me through the process. After a couple of steps, on the 3rd step, I was asked to click onto a box that had a file name with the extension of exe. I told him I was not comfortable with that. He asked me why, and I hung up. Of note, he was extremely hard to understand (I assume he was not from the USA) and there was a lot of background noise.

I received an email on Personal computer Stating that " Here is your e-bill that has been corroborated " It is a about a Firewall Security Premium of $399.99. I did not order or initiate any such service. The email had an Payment bill ID and an order number. The email stated that the amount would be deducted from my bank in the next 24 hours. It stated that my order has been successfully registered through antivirus. It stated if I wished to cancel contact the support team. at 1 (970)704-5206. I called this number on 11-17-22 about 1pm. I talked to Adam Brown ( when he called back his number was 541-391-4301) He told me follow this procedure on the computer that he was going to walk me through and began asking me to type address in search bar , then wanted me to install something on my computer, I sad I wasn't going to install something on my computer, he assured me he would take it off when we were done, but this was the only way to remove the charge from that I was going to get. I felt like this was a scam, so hung up. He called back twice.

I wanted to report a scam unsolicited text message I received. It was from Geek Squad. Phone number 844-243-8402. I never heard of them or did business with them. It said this is a confirmation that the auto pay installment on your invoice was successfully completed. Your order has been delivered. We understand you are busy. But it would be great if you could review the invoice when you have the opportunity. Customer number QWPMSSZBL Date of issue 03 November 2022. Total $465.98 . Description service and protection package for twelve months. Expired on November 3, 2023. In case you have any problem with your service 844-243-8402. I called the number five times. When I questioned them they hung up on me. They made it seem like I did not know what I was talking about. They kept hanging up on me. They tried to pretend they were someone else when I called back. I could hear static in the background. It also has an address 518US-91 Kalispell MT 59901 United States.
