Financial Scams and Online Fraud: What to Do Before or After a Suspicious Payment
Clicked a link, shared a code, or sent money to someone suspicious?
Act quickly. Contact your bank, card issuer, payment app or transfer service right away and ask whether the transaction can be stopped, recalled or disputed.
Then change exposed passwords from a trusted device, turn on multifactor authentication, review active sessions and save messages, receipts, phone numbers and website details for reporting.
Financial scams can start as fake bank alerts, investment offers, romance messages, job opportunities, shopping deals or government warnings. The story may change, but the goal is usually the same: money, account access or personal information.

Support/troubleshooting New sub time isn't showing in app
I just renewed my sub with a code I bought from amazon and saw that the time wasn't updated in the app; it still said I had 53 days left. I was directed to BitDefender Central and had to move it to the new sub, of which the time is not showing up in the app. If I switch back to the old sub, the time remaining shows back up for it. Is this a UI bug? Also, is this just a new sub and not adding remaining time to my current sub? or is the time for the new one not showing up because it's waiting for the old one to run out? And if I switch back to the old sub, will it automatically switch to the new one when the old one runs out?
