7 yearsWas trying to update my Garmin device but ended up getting locked out. Rang the number they gave, let them have a go at sorting it, but halfway through I clocked they were trying to scam me. I quickly shut down my computer and took the Garmin to a shop to get it fixed properly. Honestly, never thought I'd fall for something like this. Contacted my bank straight away to freeze my account and all that. Feeling pretty stupid now, and on top of it, I've still got to sort out my Garmin properly.7 yearsAre you sure you meant to say 'Garmin'? What exactly were you referring to?Garmin7 yearsSimilar to what others have shared, I was setting up some security stuff when these lot pretended to be Norton. They even managed to take quite a chunk from my bank, but luckily I got all the money back after speaking to the big boss. This scam has been around forever with this outfit. Honestly, why haven’t the banks stopped these dodgy payments? And why haven’t trading standards shut them down yet? It’s bonkers.Norton7 yearsI was attempting to set up Norton but ended up being redirected to this number, and the people on the other end pretended to be Norton - total scammers, absolute rip-off.Norton7 yearsMy dad, who’s 86, got caught out by a company pretending to be from Avast. They took £349 from him for supposedly 7 years of protection, but didn’t give anything in writing. When I called to get clear info on what this “cover” actually included, they couldn’t explain. They wanted to access his computer remotely, but I refused until they clarified what had been paid for. We’ve since informed the credit card firm about this. They’re definitely not Avast - steer clear of these scammers.Avast7 yearsI got completely ripped off by a right dodgy bloke who somehow took over my laptop while I was switching from Avira to Norton. Suddenly my laptop got locked, and they claimed they'd fix everything for a one-off £399 fee, saying it was a lifetime deal. My wife had been on it the night before, but I have no clue when or how it got messed up. The way they talked was super convincing, and it makes me feel awful seeing how many others they’ve tricked. Stay well clear of these scammers!AviraNorton7 yearsI was trying to set up McAfee security and they told me to call this number. Then somehow they got control of my laptop and ended up putting a virus on it. Now my laptop won’t even start up at all. Really frustrating!McAfee7 yearsBeware, this number is linked to a scam where they trick you into buying stuff like ‘lifetime’ antivirus subscriptions. You only get a year’s coverage but get charged loads of money, sometimes hundreds of pounds. It’s clearly a rip-off aimed at people who might not spot the scam easily.7 yearsAbout a year back, I ran into trouble setting up Norton security. I got linked to a firm claiming to be Norton, and they charged me £399 for a 3-year subscription. I've only got 43 days left on that period now. When I reached out to Norton, they confirmed it was a scam. The person I spoke to called himself Gary Wilson and gave me a special password to use with him. Feeling duped, I've now reported everything to Action Fraud and the police.NortonGary WilsonAction Fraud7 yearsI ended up having issues with my Garmin and found this number listed as their customer service. They told me my gadgets were infected with spyware, so I ended up paying for a so-called 'lifetime' protection. Right after they took control of my PC remotely, I started getting really wary. Looks like they managed to slip a hidden app onto my laptop. Funny enough, they did sort out the problem with my sat nav in the end! But seriously, avoid calling this number!Garmin8 yearsI'm simply after some cash!8 yearsI encountered an error on my screen while attempting to set up my Norton Security, which led me to a phone number. The person I spoke with claimed my computer had been compromised, mentioning some hijack issues. They assured me they could sort it out, and then somehow I ended up handing over around £219 for what they said would be a five-year protection plan. It all seemed quite convincing at the time, but now I’m feeling quite uneasy about the whole situation-could it possibly have been a scam?8 yearsI was attempting to set up Norton Security when I got an error message, directing me to call 02038843557. A chap named Jay Anderson answered and claimed he could sort it out with something called sonic firewall, charging £99 for five years or £149 for a lifetime. I mentioned I'd rather show my computer to a trusted engineer I use regularly, and at that point, he just hung up on me. Afterwards, I contacted Norton directly, and they took all my information. WATCH OUT, THIS IS DEFINITELY A RIP-OFF!Norton SecurityJay AndersonNorton8 yearsI recently received a call from this number, which appears to be connected to McAfee Security. I'm not sure whether it’s legitimate or a total scam, but they insisted on charging me £99 to eliminate some so-called trojan horses that weren’t even present on my device. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!McAfee Security8 yearsHad a similar situation, tried to set up McAfee but it just wouldn’t install. Called their support and ended up speaking with a bloke named Tim Parker who, after getting into my PC, started pushing me to pay for driver repairs. I reckon my computer was probably already compromised, which might explain why the McAfee download got rerouted. I’ve since run a malware bytes scan and switched all my important site passwords, though it’s unclear if any info was stolen when he took control.McAfeeTim Parker9 yearsI was helping my elderly father-in-law set up McAfee on his laptop, but it kept giving an error during installation and told us to call their support. When we spoke to them, they claimed his computer had been hacked and was being used for some dodgy websites! They then pushed a lifetime McAfee subscription for over £400, and being a bit vulnerable, my father-in-law agreed. After that, they attempted to withdraw £1600 from his bank. We’ve already reported it to the fraud squad. Absolute scumbags.McAfeeSubmit Your Own Report (020 3884 3557)
