2025-05-29 Cr***** The fake PayPal email was a phishing scam. Be careful people. Be on the lookout for an email from "facebook support" too. Because that another recent phishing scam. Paypy scam makes you think you owe money. Facebook scam says they are going to ban your account in 24hrs etc It''s a dangerous word as far as scams go. I trust McAfee though.
2025-05-20 ***** 他の方もレビューに投稿していましたが 更新手続きを完了したにもかかわらず更新画面が何度も表示されるので更新が完了していないのだと思ってしまい 重複して料金を支払ってしまいました その後も何の連絡もなく ぼったくりにあったような不愉快な気持ちです 何らかの解決を望みます 私のような方がほかにもいると思います 然るべきところへ訴えるしか無いですかね
