![]() The goal of the scammers is to trick recipients into calling a fake hotline and claiming a refund for a supposed Geek Squad product renewal. ![]() However, it was nothing more than a fake designed to deceive recipients into giving up confidential information. The emails claimed that the Geek Squad renewal payment was processed successfully. Geek Squad email scam is known as a refund scam. These scammers asked for the invoice number in the email. These calls were answered by scammers who seemed to be in foreign call centers. We called some of these numbers knowing it was all a ruse. We have examined these emails, which are actually part of a well-known “phishing” attack designed to trick recipients into divulging personal information. Some of the scam renewal emails mentioned GEEK SQUAD CARE, Geek Squad Premium, Geek Squad Computer Protection Plan, Geek-Squad Protect 360, Geek Squad Personal Home Membership, GEEK SQUAD protection service, Geek Squad Best Buy Service, Geek Drive Anti Drive, Geek Total Protection, Geek Squad Antivirus, Geek Squad Internet Security, Geek Squad Complete Network Security, Geek Squad Antivirus Plus, Best Buy-Geek Squad Total Tech Support, Geek Squad Auto-Renewal, Geek Squad PC Membership, GEEK SQUAD ® Network Security.

The TSA Score is determined by analyzing the latest review data from multiple independent testing laboratories, other reputable third party review sites and our many years of experience in the security software industry. Reality is, if you obtain a nasty Ransomware virus as an example, does having a product that uses limited computer resources matter if you can no longer access your computer? With increasing computer processor speeds being able to handle heavy workloads and improving performance significantly, TSA Scores are focused more on how well a security product protects your system from malware, viruses, and threats as opposed to how much system impact does this security product have. The Software Authority strives to be different! Our results are based on factual data and you will never see a non-certified product that you never heard of being rated highly for the sole purpose of pushing sales like we often see on other review sites.
