left cell phone message regarding purchase
I think it is a scam. Says it is from Amazon, but reverse lookup shows otherwise.
I got an email from Annie Hil claiming my Norton Pack automatically was renewed for $239.69 on my debit card. I don't have Norton, haven't had it for over 10 years and I don't have a debt card (debt is what she called it).
At the bottom of the email; "If you wish to stop subscription and ask for a Refund then please feel free to call our Refund & Settlement Dept. as soon as possible." with the phone number; 866-579-1966. It's phishing for your debit card number. If you need to call Norton, go to their official website for the number.
Received an email about renewal of a Norton Account. I have a Lifelock account under a different email renews at a diiferent time.. Said was going to do a direct debit of amount over 200. I have not given any bank information. This was the number to call for a refund. I did not call it.
Said it was an Amazon rep - scam
