I received an email claiming my Norton subscription had been renewed, with instructions to call this number if I hadn't authorized the charge, which is clearly a scam.

Expert Opinion
Imagine getting a sudden call from +12092972834 and being handed a vague refund or subscription story. The pattern here matches classic tech support and refund scams where callers claim unauthorized renewals—often for services like Norton Security—to pressure you into calling back. Most recipients report silence, abrupt disconnections, or aggressive scripts that aim to harvest personal data or install malware. If you receive such a number, hang up immediately, block the contact, and verify any alleged charges directly with the legitimate provider through official channels. Never share passwords or grant remote access, and report the incident to your carrier and consumer protection agencies.
