Type of a scam Tech Support
For about 20 minutes I went back in forth with her broken English saying I did not want to buy their support package until I finally asked to either get support or speak with a manager. She told me that she was sending me a link via my listed E-mail address and that it would arrive shortly. After waiting nearly 30 minutes and getting into another chat to ask why the email had been so late, it arrived.
When I read the message, it appeared hand typed and contained links to problems very vaguely related to the one I was currently having. At which point I scheduled a call that is to take place today (March 17, 2016) at 5:30 PM CDT because it was midnight from the support running so slowly and wasting my time.
Unfortunately, the screenshots of the chat I took are on my other computer (This is my school laptop) so I am unable to upload them as of now, but I will give my interpretation of what pretty much happened. (Paraphrased, of course!)
You need to buy our premium support package which includes
antivirus and speeds up your computer for $199. You will get AVG with
the purchase and it will mean you won't have to go to a computer store ever again.
