AVG Phising mail possibly

Derek_T · October 16, 2015, 9:10am

Hi I got a mail today from the mail address AVG <noreply@email.avg.com> to my personal email that I have my AVG products licensed to, its saying my products have expired, they dont until mid next year

THIS IS EITHER A TARGETED PHISHING MAIL OR YOUR ACCOUNTS RE WRONG

EITHER WAY YOU NEED TO BE AWARE OF SAME HOWEVER IF ITS THE FORMER YOU BETTER LET CUSTOMERS KNOW OR THEY COULD BE GIVING THEIR ACCOUNT CREDENTIALS AWAY WITH ALL THE PROBLEMS THAT GO WITH THAT

THE BODY OF THE MAIL SAYS (AND IT USES YOUR LOGO)

	Hello YOUR NAME HERE,

	Your AVG Internet Security expired a little while ago and we’re worried about your online safety. Without ongoing protection, your PC will be left wide open to new threats. Come back to AVG and not only will you get superior security, but you’ll also save 30% on the normal price!

I SUGGEST YOU LOOK AT THIS URGENTLY

ALSO HOW DO THEY KNOW THE MAIL ADDRESSES OF YOUR CUSTOMERS?

IF ITS AN AVG ACCOUNTS ISSUE THAT IS BETTER BUT STILL NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED URGENTLY

THANKS

Why shout? Does that make you more important than normal people? Please behave!

I got the same sort of message:

Your AVG PC TuneUp expired a little while ago — and without .....

But I know it is not right, so there is no need for action. And certainly no reason to shout !!

I checked with your account, your AVG Internet Security program is valid till 2016.4.28.
Could you please send us a screen shot of the email you have received here?
