They locked my computer and made me pay $249 to get the key. Then, they asked for more money. My techs found they had put "Team" in my programs which would allow them instant accesss anytime they wanted. It appears they are using Magic Jack with a Manhattan area code. They could be anywhere in the U.S. or world. Call them at (325) 407-4060 and (325) 288-3288 and let them know they are frauds and extortionists. Call them over and over to keep their lines so busy they cannot call out. These companies usually change their telephone numbers about every 30 days.

I paid for a software update. Because of misunderstanding on both parties a payment could not be completed. This required another payment to correct the account balance. Two refunds were authorized, but uncollectable. I was told the account could be adjusted by submitting another deposit. I complied and when I called this number, it was answered and I was given a busy signal.
