Antivirus Scam Alert - Davel


Posted: Feb 25, 2014

On 10/8/13 I downloaded Antivirus Security Pro per instructions and they immediately charged my credit card $99.99.  It was started that I was automatically granted a 12-month access in which to re-download at any time.  When downloaded, there was an icon on the desktop and the program listed in the folder on C drive.  My old antivirus was still good, so I did not try to the product right away.  Around 11/1/13 did try it and it had disappeared, icon and program.  Tried to re-download, but could not without paying another $99.99.  Immediately notified company.  On 11/15/13, I received an email stating they had approved full refund of my money within next working week, then stated next 21 business days.  I contacted them again 12/13/13 and 1/13/14 without reply or refund.  Today is 2/25/14 and I still have not received my $99.99 credit and they no longer answer emails.  Then emails received were from http://techprotectorltd.com/.

why not have credit card reverse charges - you didnt get product

They can reverse the charges and you get your money back.

Caution To Students And New Grads - Scam Alert - Do MT Work (Internship) For Free
Mar 10, 2011

There is still another scam company out there offering to help "train" students and graduates. They will kindly let you do their real work, the work clients are paying them for. This is unacceptable and unethical. It will not look good on your resume because potential employers do not look kindly on this. If, for example, they find out that you did your 'internship' with XYZ Company, you will probably never know the reason why your resume was rejected or tossed.  Working for free ...

Thanks For The Antivirus Advice

I just wanted to say how grateful I am for this board.  I posted a few weeks ago how I hated Kapersky and how it kept updating while I was working and stalled my computer out.  Some great advice was posted on this board about exiting the program and running when YOU want, not when MQ decides to run it and also names of other virus protection programs other than Kapersky (and McAffee which is just as bad).  I tried exiting Kapersky which worked okay, but I finally removed it and in ...
