Scam Description
I have received several emails from McAfee over the last few weeks. Stated my contract was expiring and my computer would no longer be protected. Charging $499.99 to renew. McAfee order number 68546KDE896. I emailed them on September 29th that I do not want to renew. Then they sent another email. They charged my credit card $499.99. I called them at 888-232-6090. I spoke with Clayton today at 210-948-2982. Instructed me to go to Target and buy two $500 gift cards. I had given them my debit card number over the phone. They would put the money back into my account. I thought this is ridiculous and hung up. The email came from Gulsumr47uNijkamp@gmail.com I am going to contact my bank.
