Geek Squad Reports & Reviews (295)

- Stamford, CT, USA

I keep receiving emails from someone impersonating Geek Squad, which I know is part of Best Buy. They claim that an auto-renewal has been set up and that I would be billed $448 for GSK Ultimate Antivirus software for Mac and Windows. I have never had this product. I have received this type of email 3 or 4 times. They all have come from people with different gmail addresses. I want to report this to warn others. I did not click on any links in the email. I am attaching a file with a screenshot of this fraudulent email.

- Hartford, CT, USA

I was attempting to update my internet accessibility while trying to update my internet info I received an online letter congratulating me for signing up for a plan with Geek Squad for $378.84 cost, which I never ordered. I called the company to cancel, and it was taking more than a half hour with forms being filled out, and the company ANYDESK.Com asking to gain access to my computer. We reached the point where they were about to ask for banking information when my daughter said, 'Hang up! It's

a scam! It should not take all that to cancel something you didn't order.

I called my banking institution to see if any charges were placed on my account. They reported none at the time. The bank disabled my online banking until I could get my computer checked out before any possible fraudulent behavior could take place.

The person I spoke with was Robert (mo last name) but an ID number (of which I did not write down)

Robert gained access to my computer and had me download info from WWW.askdesk.com. Then I was given an online address: 1-557-694-069 and a cancellation #: *********.

After completing cancellation form I was given another number ***************-575.

I now have my online banking suspended until I can ensure that this scam has not captured all of my online information.

- Abiquiu, NM, USA

Received numerous emails and texts thanking me for renewing computer protection and that in few days my auto debit will be charged $495 for one year plan. I have no idea and called given

phone number (818)528-5424 to assist with any problem. They wanted me to log onto *************** to download a cancellation form - which I refused and instead demanded they email me ( since they had my email) the cancellation form. At that point they asked me to hang up and re call them so I could speak to the acct mgr . I threatened to report them to ScamPulse.com and immediately they said they’ll cancel from their end snd hung up.

- Shelton, CT, USA

Email said that I was going to be charged about $440 for malware products that was supposedly already on my computer. I called the number that was to be used to initiate a refund. That person wanted me to go to a website that began with BBB. After that it did ask me to download a file.

- North Ridgeville, OH, USA

He sent an email with an invoice attached for payment of a years subscription to the Geek Squad. I have checked all of my accounts and I have not seen this activity

- Cabin Creek, WV, USA

The email said that I had been renewed for a service that I didn’t sign up for. So when I told her that information she asked for my name and I gave it to her then she said it looks like you have been scammed from another country and I need you to download this app so that I can remote into your phone and fix the information. I used to work for an IT helpdesk, and I’m not a fool so I said no thank you hung up. But head up in an elderly person or someone that didn’t know what to look for in a scam. This could’ve been really bad.

Received an email stating that 365.99 would auto deduct for my Geek Squad subscription.
Order Copy Invoice

They emailed me stated that they are the geek squad, and I owe them $150.99. I never did business with geek squad. I fix my own electronics!!

I keep getting emails from geek squad saying they are going to take money out of my bank account.

I have never used their service and have never given them my banking info.

- Monroe, MI, USA

An email came to me saying my subscription had been renewed

- North Haven, CT, USA

We received this email this morning, but do not have any accounts with the Geek Squad. I called the number to cancel the subscription and was told by a man with an Indian accent that we have had this account for "a long, long time". He then instructed me to open a Google browser and started to dictate an online address. It was then that I said, "I don't want this." and he hung up.

Received an invoice stating that a one year membership will renew for the amount of $419.99 which will be automatically debited from my account.

- Oroville, CA, USA

I am sent a bill thru the email, &it say that I paid for something,then they give me a balance of what I owe, I had a different one earlier,about saying I paid for a phone& I owe a balance. I emailed them back,&say it was not me,it was someone else. Then I get this.

- Knoxville, TN, USA

see attachment for letter received by email. Received an email stating the following:

Your personal Subscription with Geek Squad will expire today. The Subscription will be auto renewed . Hope you are happy with the services. in case of any further clarification or to block the auto-renewal service contact to our customer support team: 1 (888) 891-8199.Renewal Amount $399.99

- North Brunswick, NJ, USA

They send out an email telling someone that they have ordered services and they have deducted money from their account and you can call within 24 to 48 hours to receive a credit. When you call them they ask you for your name and your information. I tried just giving the invoice number and the person started to hang up on me. I called several times and the person continues to hang up. Seems like they’re trying to get my information so they could try to steal money from my account

No signature line, no contact info just a generic gmail account.

"We are grateful that you choose to use our products and services. We value your confidence in us and your continued support."

With a very poorly paint shopped Geek Squad invoice email attached.

I received an email on March 2, 2023, at 4:12 pm eastern from Jimmy Ralph at [email protected] indicating that my Geek Squad membership plan had changed and that the monthly charge is now $417. The Email message reads: "We wanted to let you know that your membership plan has changed. Your subsequent billing statement will show the revised monthly charge of $417. We appreciate how present you are in our life all the time." The attachment to email includes the additional instructions. The email attachment states that I am to call (within 24 hours) +1 (551) 579-4955 to seek a refund. It includes a Customer ID, Invoice Number, and other information, but does not include my name or the usual information that would normally appear on an invoice.
