Scam Description
First I got this email from Matt Frick saying he was with Geek Squad. matt_frick23654@icloud.com. He said that I had taken out a subscription for tech service at the Geek Squad. There were several phone numbers they used in the various communications. Then I received an email from a “fake” PayPal asking if I wanted to modify my subscription. I called the number and immediately then knew it was a scam. I purchased my computer from Staples and not Best Buy. The Geek Squad is ONLY at Best Buy. The scammers didn’t know that, so I told them that and that I was calling the authorities on them. That was the last communication I had with them. I have a page to attach with a copy of all their correspondence. I hope you can put them out of business. Again, I have copies of all their emails that I am happy to send you if you will provide an email. Thank you.
