About 2 years ago, I purchased the McAfee antivirus. I dumped it within a few days as it was interrupting things and spamming me all the time. I can't recall if I tried to get the money back or put it down to experience. The same thing last year when they invoiced me and today in my email, I received an invoice from McAfee Ireland Ltd for a one-year subscription of $99.95 and the email; below was what looked to be a PayPal receipt for this. I don't actually keep any money in my PayPal account, I simply pay for things by ordering through PayPal in one transaction. I put in a report to PayPal and also checked my actual bank account which showed no change in balance. PayPal has gotten back to me saying there were no recorded transactions and closed my ticket, although I just received another email telling me they'd also cancelled the billing agreement with McAfee. I am now confused! Did it happen or didn't it? Were those 2 emails from McAfee an attempt to get me to mindlessly renew the sub via their link, or simply to click on their link so they could get information? Can anyone explain ?
