Recieve an email fron PC Solutions stating a payment of $329.00 was recieved by auto renewal for my Firewall Security Plan. I have never dealt with this company and wondered if anyone had the same problem. I called to inquire and they could give me no info about my'account". But, they wanted me to use the "Teamviewer" app to cancel the account. That did not sound right. Supposedly it's the only was to cancel the transaction. HELP!

Yes, it's a scam Do not use TeamViewer. It will let them take control of your and royally screw things up. There is no transaction to cancel. Just ignore their message.
In fact you should never let *anyone* take control of your computer, using TeamViewer or anything else, unless it's someone you know and trust impilcitly, both with regard to his honesty and technical skills.
Hi, I am Van. I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you. I'll be glad to help you today.
It is a scam, as you have stated you don't have any history with that company. What I can suggest is just ignore them if they call you or block and mark their email spam on your mail app. Don't follow on whatever they told you to do. Because most likely they were trying to access your machine and hack it.
Please let me know if you have any further questions. I will be glad to help.
Best regards,
Van
I received an email from PC Solution Llc thanking me for my payment of $499.99 for the auto renewable plan of my Norton family. The charges might reflect within a few MOMENTS to 24 hrs. So, there is nowhere to respond in the email, just the phone number of 1-209-600-4956 Helpline. There is no "customer portal". So, I called them--LOL. Could not get through after 4 rings so I hung up. Just wondered what this scam was all about. I will watch my credit card. No body is getting in my computer!!!!

Their prices have gone up, I just got the same email with a $499.99 charge for Norton Family. Never done business with these people. Googled the company to confirm my thinking that this was a scam. Thanks all for posting.
