Description

On 2/5/24, I received an email from Geek Squad with an order number and product key number, stating I was being charged $538.00 for the 12 month automatic renewal of the Total AV Ultimate Anti Virus and that it would appear on my bank statements within 24-48 hours. I was provided with the enclosed phone number in case I wished to modify or cancel my order. I did not reply, did not make the call, did not see an attached link. I called both of our credit card companies and there is no pending charge on our accounts at this time.
