Possible Scam?

Post by spsula »

I just received a call from 4403521289509. They called to tell me that Panda Security was closing down and that they needed to get me a refund. They then tried to get me to go to a website to download a remote access program. All three of the men I spoke with were clearly Indian, but used names like Robert Cooper. None of this call made any sense and I refused to give them access. I explained to them that Panda already had my financial info and could refund my money at any time. I also explained that Panda could remote access my computer without me downloading anything (since I paid for that service). They were extremely rude and argumentative about my refusal and finally I just hung up.

Obviously this is a scam. Perhaps the company should put out a warning since this is the 4th time I have received what appear to be phishing calls related to Panda. It's clear there is a group targeting Panda and it's customers.

Hi,

Thanks for the information, but I'm afraid we will not be able to do much in this case.

Regards

A call for help

Post by Pechrif »

Please, I want someone to help.
Yesterday, I mistakenly subscribed for panda premium yearly rather than monthly. A sum of 60.3 dollars (equivalent to 21,000 naira) was deducted from the account of my beneficiary.
I am yet to use the activation code sent to me.
Please is there anything I can do to refund the money back to the account and subscribe for panda antivirus monthly premium. Please, this is very important and I would be grateful if I get a reply.
