Eat My Pants was it?

You all remember the quote of the computer protection Virus and Malware guy. He promised he would do something harmful to his penis, like ingest it, if Bitcoin did not hit one million dollars at the close of the year 2019. Well Bitcoin never even cleared 25 Grand and as far as I know his Johnson is still functioning. I guess you could check with one of his many prostitutes.

And NO, I am not slamming the dude for soliciting prostitutes. What's got me upset is that we got a McAfee subscription renewal confirmation for a product that was NOT set up as an auto renewal!!!

As the image indicates, McAfee is located in Plano, TX with a published customer service number which we called. There where only two options, one of which was refund. Selected that option and got A SINGLE RING and then nothing but silence. Tried three more times with same result!!!

Has anybody else had similar difficulty getting through to the 5000 Headquarters Drive address? Now I am starting to see how the guy made enough money to pay for the most sultry ladies of the night.  Do the right thing John. You got rich being marginally honorable, now you are slipping dude!

    Have been a loyal McAfee customer for over a decade and recently received my 'auto renewal' email. Fortunately for me, my credit card had expired so they were emailing me urging me to update my payment information so auto renewal could occur.

    it was only then that I noticed the renewal price ...it was twice what I would have paid by manually logging onto my account and manually renewing.

    I then decided to check my account history and the 1 year I had chosen to auto renewal (2011) the premium was MORE THAN double the ones where I'd done it manually and the same as 'auto renewal' was quoting for this years premium. I logged onto my account an renewed by hand for half the price.

    The words of a Mcafee moderator:

    The moderating teamhave already brought this up with McAfee management and they are reviewing the whole process to avoid an already very diminished customer image of the once very proud and fair computer virus fighter owned. Right now Auto-Renew is by default on, and we argued it should be off or at least this should be pointed out specifically rather than hidden in the small print of the agreement you click OK to when signing up.

    Also auto-renewal charges the full rate regardless of any offers elsewhere on the website. We argued that it should seek out the lowest offered price, again they are looking into that.

    Sorry you had a bad experience.

Don't be fooled by this Email Spoofing Entity

Do NOT be duped  livenlonpro unsolicited emails claiming that you have had a credit card application rejected. Jennifer Abel wrote about the nightmare experienced by James R Hood regarding a fake Amazon order. ScamAdviser published its opinion that the site is safe, but do not be deceived. They sent me an email about my credit card application being rejected and I HAD NOT APPLIED FOR A CREDIT CARD IN OVER 4 YEARS. Max Gannon, writing for CoFence, details how they are the classic Phishing scam. Do not download anything from them unless you enjoy having your laptop or desktop paralyzed by malware from their email spoofing algorithm!! I was not able to find the physical address of  livenlonpro  which is a strong indication they are fly by night fraudsters.

The Clerk has your Gasoline Receipt

How many times on a cold or rainy day have you gotten the following message at the gas pump indicating you have to enter the convenience store in order to pick up your receipt for gasoline purchase? The last thing anybody wants to see from a credit card purchase gas pump is a message stating that the clerk has the receipt! On this particular day, I was already late to pick up our daughter from day care and did not have time to walk into AllSups to pick up receipt from the convenience store attendant. Did I say CONVENIENCE store!? I think many roadside convenience stores intentionally do not reload the receipt paper rolls in order to force customers into their establishment. Once inside, customer may buy a lottery ticket, cigarettes, beer, condom, etc. Many patrons need the gas receipts either to be reimbursed by their employer or for their IRS tax itemization. Gas stations doing this are in violation of some law. Not many of have the time to file a lawsuit against gas

Homeowner's Tree dangerously Blocking Stop Sign

 As I far as I know code enforcement has contacted the female you see in the picture below regarding a huge front yard tree that is blocking a stop sign at a busy four way intersection.  She would be in violation of laws dealing with obstructing traffic signs in any other city. She resides at 113 West Deming Zip code 88203 in Roswell New Mexico. You can see how dangerous her uncut and untrimmed huge tree is at the corner of South Richardson and Deming in the picture below. I am sure she has received a lot of stimulus money as well as unemployment payments from Uncle Sam so I know she has the cash to cover the costs of cutting the hazardous tree down to size!! I worked for code enforcement in Midland Texas and they would have warned this homeowner once and the then fined her for neglect and threatening the general welfare of the public. I was going to apply for job in Roswell, but will find another place to live if the city has people who care so little for their fellow citizens!!! It i
