Went online and tried looking at a website (graffiti designs for print) I went and looked at pictures and I clicked on a picture. I tried looking throughout the page and they wanted me to log in, but I wouldnt because I didnt have a log in. Next thing you know a website pop up and and I looked up HP support because I thought my computer is being hacked. I spoke with HP through email and emailed me back with case number and product/problem details. It had a phone number listed on the email and I decided to call for more info. I talked with a man and he walked me through the steps and if I had Mcafee on my computer he asked me to go through my trash to re download Mcafee and told me my subscription was expired and I need a new one and proceeded to tell me he has one available for $39.99 for a 1 year warranty and he wanted it through paypal and I told him I did not have it and he claimed I can just add my debit card. I gave him access to my computer once I gave him access he started working on my computer and it wouldnt let me login. He asked me to troubleshoot and I did. He told me it was taking too long to login and it shouldnt take long. He pressured me to set up the mcafee account and it took so long he transferred me to someone else and I gave another man access to my computer and I seen a lot of black stuff running down my computer. He kept saying he couldnt set it up and asked for a picture of what my computer and I did. I was then transferred to a third person and they asked me for my phone info and he got access to my computer and my phone and said my IP was public. And I didnt know what that meant. He went through all my apps and asked me to go to Cash App and load money and I sent them $624 and then $399. They were tricking me so good my bank was trying to call me about the charges but I didnt see it because they had control of my phone. They hacked into everything. Suppose to be HP support.

Last November, I found lewd pictures / posts on my Facebook page. I went to Facebook to find a customer service phone number for them and called. I spoke to someone who said she could help. She said she was in Manilla and she was legit. I gave her remote control of my computer. She said someone from Nigeria had hacked into my computer. She got into my Amazon account and purchased a $100 Amazon gift card for which Amazon refunded me. She asked for my credit card number.  I said no, so she hung up. I contacted my computer repair person who cleaned the computer. I also filed a police report and put an alert on my credit report.

Geek Squad sent an email saying they were going to auto charge me for an annual subscription $422.22.

I called the 888 number to cancel the renewal. Told me I had to fill out a form, which I did. When they said I had to click on the link in my bank account I became suspicious and told them I was going to report them as a scam. How would they know my bank account t? They wouldn’t give up just kept telling me to go

To my bank and click the link. I hung up and deleted the email.

Initially was called by this number and they claimed to be a "debt relief" company - the name of which is information that was flat out refused to me (as was the name of the person calling). The number was ran through multiple unmasking services, which found the number to not be "masked" or "spoofed".

Upon calling back(had to do this multiple times) I was repeatedly told by each rep I spoke to(2 with Northern Indian accents, 1 with a Southern Indian accent, and one American male) including a supposed "manager"(American female) that the number was for "Ting Mobile Customer Service." When calling this number however, you're presented with a bot voice, asking if your calling for "Ting" or "Boost".

It's apparent to me that this may in fact be Boost/Ting mobile, however their call centers are running info phishing scams directly under the noses of the company they share a number with. This type of under the radar operation is unfortunately common place with many outsourced-to-overseas call center operations. Do NOT trust this number, as you will never know if your truly speaking to a Boost/Ting rep, or a thug working for an illegal operation in the same building (usually in the upper floors of the call center office.)

For more information on how these types of scams run under legitimate businesses, Search for the user "Scammer Payback" on Youtube.

ScamPulse.com scam tracker report entered on behalf of consumer by ScamPulse.com employee

The consumer received an email from what she thought was Norton. They said she had Norton and to call the number in the email. They said I have an amount I have to pay. I called the number in the email and they said I owe them $620, but I told them I don't have Norton and never have. They then said to provide them my banking information. That's when I said No, I am not giving you anything. That's when they shut my computer down. I can't get into it. I have a computer repairman coming to my home to fix it.

Had 2 email invoices for $399 on the same day from Norton Lifelock. Called to get them removed and refunds. They accidentally put $4,000.00 dollars in my account and then wanted me to go to a partner store and get a digital card (?) so they could balance their books. The difference would have been $3,600. I shut down my computer and called the fraud division of my bank.
