Payment Declined

[RedAngie]

Apparently my non-existent McAfee anti-virus subscription has been blocked because the payment I never made was declined.

For the 4th time today. For about the 100th time this month.

Plus three or four other things I don’t subscribe to have blocked me, terminated my service, or otherwise “threatened” me with dire consequences if I don’t open the e-mail, click the spam link, and follow demands immediately.

Too funny. I also sometimes get these 'urgent' sounding texts for some service I have NEVER subscribed to. Are some people that gullible to actually click on that nonsense? A few also claim to be from FedEx and need me to respond since they are having trouble delivering some item (when I have nothing currently on order).........LOL. I have yet to find ANY legit company who communicates that way so I just delete/block their number when that nonsense shows up.

Legit companies will more likely send you a 'reminder' email if you are behind in payment. Threatening sounding text messages as the first point of contact are probably spam. My favorite are the ones with bad grammar/syntax that were clearly written by someone who isn't fluent in English.

Anything I buy online that requires a phone #, I give them my landline/housephone instead. Obviously, those don't accept text messages so one less way to send me their garbage.

I've been warned for months now that my pictures and videos are going to be deleted due to non payment. I wish they'd just get to it because the daily email is getting old.

Add me....all the time for a variety of different things.....3 or 4 a day, at least.

I got the DMV is cancelling my license message three times this week for my violations.
It looks so real that I worry about my elderly mom and mother-in-law clicking on such things and constantly reminding them to delete.

I'm being blackmailed with threats to release the details on the "adult websites" and videos they captured of me while visiting said websites. They have infiltrated my phone and will release the videos if I tell the police. Thankfully once I pay them the $2000 I won't have to worry about them releasing the videos later because they would have no need to.

Count me in for the cancellation party!

But the scary thing is that there are MANY people who will click links, pay fees, call the number, etc. My mom fell victim to this and it was tough fixing it.

Yeah, that’s another one I get frequently. About a dozen times over a week or so, then it stops for a while, and resumes again.

Oh yes, I'm in that club of things I've never subscribed to are being canceled for payment declined, etc. Even our home warranty through our credit union told us that....we don't have a home warranty and our mortgage isn't through our credit union.

I don't even open those emails, so you all have got more time invested in these scams than I do. And I don't give out my cell phone number, so any texts HAVE to be a scam.

I don't open them but the subject line pretty much spells it out.

Do you still need that $5,000 to come here and give me 5 million dollars from your royal treasury?
