I have just received a message from 484 972 4899 informing me that my payment has been received. They are renewing my LIFELOCK-ID#1786927T called 'NORTON' for a fee of $379.99, providing coverage for 5 devices. They advise me to sit back and relax. If I have any questions, they ask me to call (888) 234-1901.

Beware of this fraudulent activity where scammers send a bogus fee and later request your bank account details under the guise of reversing the charge.

I received a call from someone claiming to be from McAfee Security, thanking me for paying $379.99 for a subscription on 5 devices. They advised me to remain calm and provided a contact number - 882-234-1901 - for any queries. A bit suspicious, I decided to call the number and inform them that I hadn't made any purchase from McAfee, as my subscription was already up to date. The person on the other end assured me that they could cancel the transaction on my behalf and inquired if I was sitting near my computer. Realizing that this might be a scam, I declined their offer and mentioned that I would personally reach out to McAfee to inquire about the charge. It seems that their intention is to gain control of your computer and potentially obtain sensitive banking information. If you refuse their assistance and mention contacting McAfee directly, they may request to reach out to you later when you are near your computer.

I have just received a message from an unknown sender stating that the payment for CARE-ID#177N-T97LZ with GEEK'S-SUPPORT has been renewed for $397.99 for a total of 5 devices. They mentioned that they will send a receipt via email. Should you have any inquiries, please call 888-234-1901. The message originated from the number 878-206-4389. I am completely unaware of who this sender is and I have never even heard of "geek's support" before.

I received a text today stating, "We appreciate your payment. Your subscription with "Geek-Support" under CARE-ID#178643KNT has been successfully renewed for the amount of $359.99, covering 5 devices. Don't worry, sit back and relax. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to call our toll-free number at (888)234-1901." However, I strongly suspect that this is a fraudulent message aimed at tricking me into calling them and denying authorization for the charge.

The scammers targeted me with a text, attempting to extort $339.99. Interestingly, Anony claimed that they demanded $359.99, suggesting they may have offered me a "discount." Perhaps Anony could negotiate with these criminals, in hopes of securing a more advantageous agreement.
