BEWARE OF ANTI-VIRUS EXPIRATION E-MAILS

BEWARE OF ANTI-VIRUS EXPIRATION E-MAILS

Are you receiving e-mails that claim that your anti-virus software has expired (McAfee, Norton, etc.)? Do they have a button to click to renew? Do they claim that you owe hundreds of dollars to continue to protect your computer? Do they instruct you to call a toll-free number to dispute the charge?

The logos look like the real deal. The e-mail is not sent from any security software providers @mcafee.com, @norton.com or @symantec.com.

This type of e-mail is the latest phishing scam designed to trick you to install malware on your computers and to take your money.

  • DO NOT CLICK
  • DO NOT CALL
  • DO NOT PAY MONEY
  • DO NOT DOWNLOAD ANY SOFTWARE

I do not install McAfee or Norton anti-virus software. I install Emsisoft anti-malware for $30-$50 annual renewal fee, depending on how many computers you have.

I am committed to protect your computers at an affordable price. Thank you for trusting me to keep your computers healthy. Contact us at 239-567-0104 when it is time to renew your protection software, or if you need computer and internet help. Be well.
