Complaint / Review
Stopzilla
Scam

I recently desired to check a brand new anti virus application, and that I were left with some attacks on my pc. I went back again to AVG Protection Package, but needed something which might help me out rapidly, when possible, till I really could get AVG packed. I chose to try STOPzilla.

Issue Number 1: I had beennot informed before I applied the merchandise that I'd need to spend before I really could eliminate any risks discovered.

IssueNumber 2: I did so create the moderate cost of $9.95. Then I obtained and joined a vital (quantity) and eliminated the risks. Then I packed AVG Protection Collection and Spybot S&D.

Issue # 3: I needed to make use of STOPzilla again today. It went permanently (atleast two hours) and documented 80 attacks. I joined my important quantity (that was allegedly advantageous to annually) also it returned unacceptable. I named STOPzilla tech-support, and wound up within an excessively lengthy discussion. The service individual explained my whole computer was all messed up by an ip assault. Then he "demonstrated" it by demonstrating me a ship weight of mistakes in Function Audience, and informing me there have been over plus they were replicating every minute.

Iam no pc specialist, but I've appeared in Function Audience before; I've were able to do ten clear puts through the years; and used to donot trust what this technology was saying. What he explained incorporated the news headlines that I'd require the help of a Microsoft expert. He might set me-up with this type of person — to get a cost. I told him easily required a specialist, I'd contact somebody I understood locally. I also stated I needed him to get rid of the attacks STOPzilla had discovered.

Issue # 4: The technology did not wish to accomplish that. He explained it'dnot do worthwhile, since my pc was therefore totally all messed up, etc., etc. I advised him I had been a compensated up client, and that I needed the attacks eliminated (if there have been any attacks within the first place. I am not really certain they actually endured.) The 3rd period I told him I needed the attacks eliminated, he did take them off. I thanked him and hungup. Then I shut anything and reopened Event Person. The 2000 mistakes had vanished.

I poked into numerous spaces and crannies of my pc (towards the greatest of my capability) and did not find any concealed crap, and anything is working great. I've two views on which STOPzilla is as much as.

1. It really does employment initially (though really, very gradually), and, since the cost is moderate, one is lured to pay for and take away the risks. The 2nd period you wish to utilize it, STOPzilla discovers the important thing unacceptable; you contact the assistance centre; they persuade you-your pc is half-past lifeless, and connect you up having a Microsoft "expert" — to get a cost. It is a sorry predicament. Simply wished to allow somebody learn about my encounter, just in case it will help another person. Cheers. Cheryl
