Received renewal of my "plan" being charged today with very limited time to agree or cancel. It was from something called "HOPE" but was similar to the Geek Squad examples above. I double deleted and will check my bank accounts daily.

Geek Squad Subscription Renewed Scam
an anonymous user from: Pueblo Nuevo, Panama City, Panamá, Panama

This morning I received the same scam. However I am in Panama and we have no Best Buy or Geek Squad. Furthermore I do not have banking for them to charge. So suggested they take their scam to rich Americans. Not my coungry where average income is $550 a month where we have no money available for such things.

BEWARE- I received the email above, similar to others that have been reported here- I did not open the attachment and did not reply to the email- I called from a LAND line- I spoke with Elisha, she seemed very nervous .

I asked what was I being charged for, what account did they receive payment from, what was the service and what does the services they are charging me for on the invoice show?

I told her I would not open the attachment asI have never asked for their services and it seemed fraudulent. She seemed very nervous- I pressed her a number of times for what was listed on the invoice and the services that I had never signed up for as I had never spoken with them or contracted with them for anything...she told me that I had to "cancel" the the service or I would be charged, for "security services on my drive" or I would be charged for it, and to cancel it I had to fill out their information form to cancel it.

Completely fraudulent obviously, I pressed her for her business address and her company's website address and she of course hung up
