Avangateee Services LLC James Moris was telephone caller who claimed that my email service provider sbcglobal.net had been hacked San Leandro, 94579 California, California Secrtary of State

ON JUL 5, 2016, I RECEIVED A TELEPHONE CALL FROM 510-246-8549 ALERTING ME THAT MY ISP, "SBCGLOBAL.NET" HAD BEEN HACKED BY PEOPLE IN RUSSIA, AND THAT ALL MY CREDIT CARDS SHOULD BE CANCELLED, ON-LINE BANK ACCOUNTS CLOSED, AND ALL PASSWORDS I USE SHOULD BE CHANGED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. BUT THEN...THE CONVERSATION CHANGED TO INSTALLING SECURITY SOFT WARE...COST $239.99 FOR ONE YEAR.

THE CALLER, JAMES MORIS, WAS IN A VERY NOISY SERVICE CALL CENTER (READ AS BOILER ROOM). HE  ASKED ME TO CLICK ON A LINK--THAT WAS MY GOOF. BUT HE HAD TAKEN OVER MY PC AND PROCEDED TO  RUN VALLID DIAGNOSTICS ON THE PC. THEN HE INSTALLED SEVEN SECRITY SOFTWARE PRODUCTS ON THE PC. i WAS FAMILIAR WITH TWO OF THEM: CCLEANER AND MALWARE BY MALWAREBYTES.

 HE DID NOT ASK FOR A CREDIT CARD NUMBER TO CHARGE ME $239.99. I WAS INSTRUCTED TO SEND A CHECK TO THE FOLLOWING ADDRESS:

      AVANGATEE SERVICES LLC

     699 LEWWLLING BLVD #146/293

     SAN LEANDRO, CA 94579

GUESS WHAT? THAT IS THE ADDRESS OF A UPS STORE IN A SHOPPING CENTER.  IN OTHER WORDS, IT WAS A MAIL DROP

THIS COMPANY IS REGISTERED WITH THE CALIF SECRETARY OF STATE STATE. ID NO. 201523110092

WHAT IS ON MY MACHINE NOW ARE SEVEN SOFTWARE PRODUCTS FOR $239.09 FOR ONE YEAR...NOT A BAD PRICE, BUT I NEED NONE OF THEM AS I CURRENTLY HAVE A MCAFEE CONTRACT.

THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THEY ARE FAIR GOODS FOR THE MONEY, BUT THEY USE FALSE THREATS TO MARKET THEM.

P.S. i AM NOT SENDING THEN A CHECK. THEY CAN TAKE ME TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT.
