I just saw this come into my Gmail.

Absolute scam - please don’t fall for this

Fake phone number and GeekSquad would never give you 20% off for talking with an agent 🤓

Good God! $450.00 a year. They would probably catch more people with this scam at $30.00 a year. 🙄

I have a feeling I posted about this in the Security News a few weeks ago, I thought it had died down.

Wow. That’s a pretty convincing phish! Those emails are getting harder to identify.
