Below is a copy/paste of an e-mail I received today. I have checked everywhere I could find, and found no indication that Automatic Subscription Renewal has been disabled, either for my account or for Norton generally. Also the offer of 6 free months looks uncharacteristic of Norton :-) I am certainly not going to click on the link provided.
My problem, really, is that I am unable to find a way to report this probably-fake e-mail to Norton. My bank, my credit cards, and even Facebook have addresses where you can forward suspected fraud e-mails. I am about 98% sure this is fake, but would like to get confirmation either way.
Can anyone tell me (a) if this is truly a fake message and (b) if there is a way to report it? Thanks.
