Spyguarder has appeared in my desktop a few days ago making it impossible to open any of my programs. I had to order their software for 49.99 within 10/15 minutes they took 68.88 out of my account. This money was removed by a billing company who told me they don’t know Spyguarder is located or how to reach them. Do you have any idea in what state they are located? Please advise me if you can assist me. Thanks.
I had the same problem and I am a Realtor who needs their computer. They took $114.00 out of my account instead of the $49.99. Their system won’t activate with the “Key” they gave me and I have contacted their Customer service # to have the amount removed in the meantime. I am on hold, again, as I type this. Their #1-800-467-1077 has left me on hold for 30 minutes. I called my bank and they said I could sign a dispute of charges and have it removed so you might try that. I am having trouble deleting this at this time. Hope you have better luck. I am going to file a complain with my state Attorney General’s Office. Good Luck!
