NortonLifeLock Email Scam: Subscription Pending
Watch out for a new NortonLifeLock Email Scam happening these days. It is a “NortonLifeLock Security 1 Year Subscription Pending” message which asks recipients to call a phone number. The one used in the original NortonLifeLock scam was 1-888-481-2106, but rest assured by now, there could be many others. Check the comments section too, for more feedback from victims.
The senders attempt to trick their potential victims into sending them a lot of money for a fake Norton subscription. Their quest is successful because many people are not even aware of their computer anti-virus/protection systems.

Dear Customer,
We have charged your account $499.99 for a 5-year subscription. If you find any problem with this transaction or wish to cancel, please call 805-395-4905.
When I called the number, a gentleman said his name was Jason Tyler with Norton.
He said on your computer, punch the window button and “r,” and it brought up a file screen. He said to enter http://www.tinyurl.com/nortonlife360.
I did, then he sent a link to Anydesk. An invite number, 942345813, told me to enter the password Gir55702 to access the Norton Server so he could check.
An Icon appeared on my computer labeled Norton Server.
Once I doubled clicked on it, I noticed he had access to my computer.
He wanted me to enter my name, I did, and the server window said verified. It asked for my address and email, which it confirmed, it then asked for my Bank info, and I provided a Fraternal Order of Police Credit Union, which would not verify. He said all I can say is Norton didn’t change your account.
I would like to add that the computer I used didn’t have any of my bank, credit cards, or soc. Sec. number or date of birth info.

My dad got one year’s worth of norton life lock months before he crossed over. Right after that, his card started getting refused. I never trusted Norton because of bad personal experience with them working at a cyber cafe. I think they are criminals pretending to be the cops. That’s my opinion.

I received an email today stating that my Norton subscription was being renewed and then if I didn’t want this I was to call the provided number. I called the number and the person on the other end of the line kept telling me I needed to cancel through my subscription online and that he would provide the location to log into. I told him I was not near my computer and he said he would wait. I told him I did not have a Norton subscription. And he said don’t you have Windows on your computer? And didn’t you purchase your computer three years ago? (I actually did not buy a close member of my family did).

The message “you have successfully placed the order for Re-new of Norton LL for $322 (2139925824). When I called, I told them I was heading to our police dept with the message. They quickly hung up
I received an email from someone who claimed they were with Norton LifeLock. They were charging me $299.99 for protection for 5 years. As I was talking to the man on the phone Paypal notified me that $799.99 was being charged to my account by Syed Bashir. I immediately jumped on another computer of mine and canceled that charge. I threaten to notify the Police at which time the man on the phone claimed he cancelled the transaction. I hung up the phone. Later that day, someone sent out emails from my account to all of my contacts with very inappropriate and embarrassing language. I notified my internet adviser and changed my password.
