I received an e-mail from Geek Squads Billing that said it was a reminder for service auto renewal. It gave me a order ID# 675fd91RD, a product name of Network Security. They said it was a new Network Security update and it was ready for installation and as per their contact with me their plan will auto renew and it will auto debit $399. This is towards the extension of service period for 36 months support. Then they said it I have any queries regarding this subscription to call their Network Support Team and gave me a number starting with area code 806.

I called Geek Squad right away using the phone number on Best Buy web site which is not the number listed in the e-mail. They did not show anything about an update on my account and there was not any outstanding charges and nothing for $399.

I had not ordered any protection from The Geek Squad....especially for no $299.99. I called the underlined # and the fellow with a Philippine accent told me to click on that underlined #...I asked "Why" he said so he could handle the account....or something to that effect. I asked if in doing so he could have access to my computer---his answer was "Yes". I used some language I will not put in print and told him in no uncertain terms --- "NO"

I think this was a way to get into my computer --- they may have even got into my checking, but the Bank isn't answering the phone at 3:51pm.. I'm not sure if that's because it's after hours, or the fact that they may be busy.

We were called by someone saying our visa account was charged 250 dollars for our support contract by visa. If we wanted to cancel this support we were to call a given #. I didn't write down the number because we paid for our support in February and it was not 250 dollars. I should have written down the number and I will if they call again but just wanted to notify you this was happening.

02/04/2020, 12:48pm, Tuesday There was a voicemail left and a phone number to call back, 682 243-2456. I called back and and a man very forcefully told me they were going to take $400.00 from my bank account. I yelled in response if they took any money from my account, they would be sued and I would take them to court. I demanded to know who they were now and what they thought they were going to do it for. He replied they are The Geek Squad and I had a yearly contract due bill and my computer was going to crash. I told him I did not have an account or bill with them and never had. I again forcefully and loudly told him I would sue him and did he understand? He said, "Yes," but he continued to press that he was able to take the money from my bank account and crash my computer. I continued to yell into the phone; I would sue them and take them to court about three more times and he hung up on me. A report has been filed with the local police and my bank has been notified.

They called at 7am leaving a message that there is going to be an automatic withdrawl from my account of $99.00 unless if I call back and cancel my subscription. I returned the call they claimed they were with Geek Squad and said I needed to be on my computer in order to cancel the account. I was on the computer for 15 minutes following his instructions with some hesitation in my mind. Then all of a sudden there was a different guy on the phone, I asked where did the guy that I was just talking to go? He replied he had another phone call so he was going to finish helping me. That seemed like a huge red flag. I hung up, all of a sudden my phone started ringing off the hook, they called me 16 times from 3 different numbers and I didn't answer any of them. They sent me a message on my computer to call back and that is when I closed out everything that they had me doing on my computer. I then called ScamPulse.com to check the phone #'s and they couldn't locate any of them. I then called our local Geek Squad store and talked to an associate about what was going on and they tried to look up an account for me and said that I wasn't even in their system. He said that they would never call in person it would be correspondence either through email or mail. Told me to watch if I was charged or anything in my bank account.

Representative called 4 times to say I am getting a refund of $229 from their bankrupt company. I haven’t used Geek Squad in 5 years. They wanted me to go on my computer to fill out a “ secured form” in order to process. They wanted me to go online while they were still on the phone! They said they only needed the name of my Bank! I told them I was reporting them. They said please go to the BBB. You will see we are in excellent standing! Please alert others to not fall for this insidious scam! I did not.

They called claiming to be from Best Buy Geek Squad and said if I don't cancel my membership, I will be charged $299.00 that would automatically be deducted from my checking account. I have not done any business with Best Buy for many, many years and never signed up for any type of service with them. When I called from a different number, they used the same scam, not even knowing who they were talking to. one man actually told me to shut up, which of course, I did not!

Received email at 10:48 am on 8/27/2019. Called phone # on email (attached). Auto voice said Geek Tech Support I wanted was not available and to leave a message. I left message saying I did not order or want what they were selling, and I wanted to know what account they had charged it to. I also told them if I did not hear from them by 12 noon I would report them to BBB. I tried emailing them at the email address on their email (even though it said "no-reply"). At 11:01am I received call from number listed on email, but when I answered there was only a dial tone. I called back at 11:04 am. Man said they would cancel the order but I would have to be transferred to their billing department and they would take access to my computer to do that. I said, "No way you're getting access to my computer!" The man then said he would cancel the order. I then asked for his name and a confirmation number. The next thing I heard was a busy signal or a dial tone. I also received an mail from [email protected] saying they were unable to deliver email. I have checked my credit cards and banks. It seems as though nothing has been charged to me as yet.

A phone call from some foreign man saying they was from geek squad.

Said my computer was sending signals to their computer and tried to get me to sit behind my son's computer (even though I said that it wasn't in my name),. asking for me to type what they say and that it wouldn't take long.

I said we are busy and he kept insisting that it was for real and the computer needed something.

I finally talked him into calling back on Tuesday just to hang up the phone.

Consumer said that she received a phone call from The Geek Squad saying that the Better Business Bureau told the Geek Squad to reimburse them money owed. The Geek Squad told the consumer they just needed her bank account information so they could deposit the money to her. Consumer hung up the phone on the scammer.

Received a voice mail indicating they were going to debit my account. When I returned the call they indicated they were with Geek Squad but had been recently bought out. I indicated I had not used Geek Squad and had not given permission for any payments. I tried to cancel and he indicated he could not provide the information due to buy out.

Got a call from an 'Unavailable' number. When I clicked 1 to learn about a supposed refund due to me, I got connected to a noisy boiler room, by the sound of it. Speaker had a fairly strong accent, but claimed to be representing the Geek Squad about some service they did on my computer last August. He directed me to download a program (app, in his parlance) named AnyDesk.exe. When I pressured him to give me more validation or a number I could call back, he tried to make me feel bad that I wouldn't take the refund and that they (whoever they are) would be delighted to keep the money. Claimed that ScamPulse.com was knowledgeable about them as a means to try to get me to proceed, but, when I continued to pressure him, he finally told me he was going to hang up and keep my $300 (which I never spent, as I seldom have used Best Buy or the Geek Squad). I have no record in my accounting program of an amount spent at either Geek Squad or Best Buy in the time frame he used.
