Type of a scam: Worthless Problem-solving Service Scam

Scam tricking the elderly

My 80 year old mother looked up the number for Webroot and this company's number popped up. She called asking if they could help her with a scam she had fell for and they pretended to be Webroot and sold her a "3 year tech subscription" for $750. She reluctantly paid for it. Once she told me, I immediately called them and demanded they refund the money, but they said they would only return half since they spent an hour "working" on her computer. They did absolutely nothing to her computer. This company should be shut down for fraudulently misleading the elderly.

Total money lost: $249.99
Type of a scam: Tech Support

I went online 7/5 to get webroot security on my new computer. This company intercepted the request and presented themselves as webroot affiliates. I found out yesterday by Best Buy and again today from the actual Webroot company that this was a scam and there had been no purchase made for the product I ordered. My account was charged $249.99 for the home security. I had to go to Best Buy yesterday and purchase the actual security package I needed. I emailed Techaid but of course have not heard back and the representative at Webroot tells me I won’t. She said they have reported their fraudulent activities several times to no avail.

Address: AK, USA
Type of a scam: Tech Support

I received a call from a woman claiming to be from Tech Aid. She told me my computer had been sending error signals. She said every computer has an internal error reporting system. She asked me to press ctrl and r at the same time and then type eventvwr.

I didn't continue because I knew it was a scam. I told her I knew what she was doing and she hung up on me.
