Description

While surfing the internet Jan. 2025 got a pop up saying I was hacked and call this number (I don't remember) to unlock the computer. Called paid $3177 to unlock to computer and install security for the computer and the internet for life, Then, on June 26 got a for call from Max Rogers from WebMicro that I owed $3000 for the computer security installed on the computer and if I don't pay he will have someone at my house to get the payment. I paid $$1900 to have the system removed. Then I received a second phone call from Max Rogers on 5 July that I owed more money for the internet security to which I told him to remove it. Initially it would have been $1900 to remove but because I was a senior it cost $1100. During the phone calls with Max Rogers I told him that his company from nothing but a scram company. After the phone call I found WebMicro LLC on the web with numerous complaints, and based on that will not pay the $1100. Further the checks written to WebMicro LLC where addressed to Apexbyte LLC 2020 Howell Mill Road NW, Suit D235 Atlanta, Ga. 30318-1732.
