Scam Number: Unknown
Scammer’s Website or Email: Multiple, see below
Additional information about this scam:

Continuing my search of sites.google.com pages for “code” and “activate,” I came upon this page: https://sites.google.com/v1activate.co.uk/mcafeecomactivate/mcafee-25-digit-activation-code,

which redirects to this site: https://startseteasy.com/download.en_us/,

Which tells you to chat with a scammer at https://tawk.to/chat/6544f507f2439e1631eb6185/1healq9oi .

I am trying to talk to “Jack” but he isn’t biting yet.

Similar M.O. to the other two scams I found earlier today, TurboTax and another McAfee.

I was Talking to them a long time ago and also just a couple minutes ago, I found it myself again just an hour ago and then someone is posting it lol, they are saying they will fix it and after an hour they are calling you back after doing litrelly nothing except running some commands on cmd, downloading a free adblocker and a cracked mcafee/webroot and then charge you for crazy amounts for nothing…

Is it a coincidence that this website uses the same “spinner gif” thing as the fake McAfee activate sites I’ve been discovering lately? Maybe.

Simon Walker’s favorite color is light green.

Also Antivirus Software and Internet Security For Your PC or Mac | McAfee™ , same scam.
