I received a call from an alleged Peter Johnson from India who stated that he was monitoring my computer and that my IP address was used for illegal activities and had been hacked. I purchased the monitoring system from them in and he attempted to get me to pay ($300.00) for a Lifetime Monitoring anti-hacking system. At any rate, I used my credit card to pay for the services [after] he demonstrated thousands of errors on my computer and stated an individual attempted to hack it from New York. Subsequently, I was called again on (7/17) and was told another attempt was being made and that they were checking my system. I came home on last night to find a Western Union transfer of ($50.00) which I did not authorize. Therefore, I contacted Western Union and reported Fraudulent activity. I canceled the credit card this morning. I was "scammed" by this company and am humiliated and disgusted for falling into their trap.
