Message on my phone today: "As requested, we have automatically renewed your Norton Antivirus service. Your credit card has been charged $431.89 for another twelve months protection. If you did not authorize this charge, press 1 immediately, or 2 to have us call you back."

Golly whiz - must be a scam!

(PS - the "international country code" on the bogus caller id was an old code for Ukraine.)
yeesh
 
Kind of like the robot message I got on my phone a couple days ago now saying that a charge of $16k had been made for computer equipment on my Google account. And to go through a similar process of providing account info to approve or deny. Seeing as how I don't have a Google charge account, and the message used the generic address of "dear customer" rather than anything to appear like it was specific to me, ignore.
 
My recent was that due to suspicious activity my SIN (social security) number had been suspended. Inpress amount of government intervention.
