There are a couple of versions of this Phishing Scam going around. The idea is to get the recipient to believe they have been charged for something they never purchased, so they will contact the sender to clear up the issue. The sender will be very helpful and ask personal questions to help “clear up the issue”. This is a common Phishing scam. Always check the actual sender’s email address to see if it is from a legitimate company. Then look up the company’s real customer service phone number if you are concerned it is legitimate. That is, if the company exists. Sometimes scammers use legitimate company names.

McAfee is a legitimate company but the phone number listed doesn’t belong to them.

Nsecure is a IT security company in the Netherlands but the number listed is known for RoboCalls; and it has the format of a U.S. phone number, not a Netherlands phone number.
