I keep getting notices that my security software has expired on such-and-such a date. Which is news to me and my security software vendor, as the programs are working just fine.

Mr. McAfee himself is unavailable, since I understand he's in the pokey.

Thing is, I've never paid for anything from the Geek Squad and haven't even shopped at Best Buy for years. SCAM.
