It’s odd how often the same pre‑recorded script mentions a $249 refund deadline. Those calls typically use a robotic female voice and pressure you to act within hours, which is a classic scam tactic. Never share personal or banking details until you’ve independently verified the company’s legitimate contact information. Hang up, block the number, and check your account for unauthorized charges. Report the incident to the FTC and your financial institution, and consider using a call‑blocking app to reduce future unwanted calls. Staying cautious and confirming requests through official channels can keep your data safe.
I had a similar experience with a call regarding V Tech, where I was told to cancel or be charged $249 within 24 hours.
I won't be returning the call after receiving the same scam attempt.
This is a complete scam. I spoke to someone who was barely understandable, and they claimed that $249.99 had already been charged to my debit card.
I received the same voicemail and appreciate the warning.
I had a similar experience with a call about V Tech, saying i needed to cancel or be charged
Upon answering the call, an automated voice claiming to be from VTech Solutions informed me that my card would be charged $249 for virus protection renewal unless I cancelled; no refund was issued after not calling back, and I don't own any VTech products.
A prerecorded message by a female voice stated that V Tech will charge $249,99 unless cancelled within 48 hours by calling 786-687-5476, when i called them, the line was busy and then a recoreded voice said goodbye and the call ended abruptely!
I was informed of an automatic charge of $200 if I did not respond within 24 hours.
I received a call claiming my credit card would be charged $249.00 within 24 hours unless I cancelled a subscription by calling a given number, which I did not do
We had a similar experience with VTech, claiming we owed $249.99, so thank you for sharing your story.
A recorded message claims that a charge of $249.99 has been billed to me by Vtech, with a 24-hour window to cancel. Upon researching, Vtech appears to be a legitimate company, but the phone number used to contact me seems to be part of a scam. As a precaution, I will notify my credit card company to be vigilant for any such transactions.
VTech Solutions is trying to scam me by charging my card for virus protection, they want me to call and cancel, SCAM
A computerized voice of a woman claimed a refund of 289$ was coming or cancellation of service would occure
They tryed to scam me by saying i purchased a PC 2 years ago and needed my information to process a refund, when i called back, the guy started yammering off random numbers and gps coordinates and said my voice sounded sexy
The caller asked about processing a refund of $399 within 24 hours, but I hung up the phone
A voicemail from Vtec was left, mentioning a refund and a need to respond soon, but the automated voice was somewhat distorted and difficult to understand.
this potential SCAM caller from "VTEC Solution" wants me to call to get a refund or somthing, directly sent to voice mail
