VERIZON NEW YORK INC.
Got unwanted call from 518-861-9727?
Called saying from PC Tech Support. Hung up and blocked number before she could go into her spiel.
Anti virus renewal scam.
I got a call at 10:20 Jul 18 and the voice said they were from some tech support and I would changed $299.00. If I want to continue or cancel my subscription to call 518-861-9727. I have never heard of this tech company nor do I want to use them. I couldn't understand the name she said.
Called saying they were from PC support and the anti-virus subscription was running out today and to send a dollar 299. Didn't make sense. This is a scammer.
Got a call from 518-861-9727 and they left a message saying I would be charged $299 to renew my subscription. I called them back, blocking my number. A man answered and I asked for the company name and he said Windows. He said he was tech support for Windows. He claimed I had gotten communication on my PC that my windows subscription had run out and I clicked to renew the subscription. This NEVER happened. I told him I was reporting the phone number to the Federal Trade Commission!
Calling saying that our Tech Support will automatically renew for $299 if we don't call.
