Support Scams – the Industry doesn’t like them either

For Graham Cluley’s blog, David Bisson summarizes the story of how Symantec ended its agreement with one of its partners after Jérôme Segura reported for Malwarebytes on how the partner was using tech support scam techniques to trick customers into buying Norton Antivirus and a year’s support at prices well in excess of the pricepoint set by Symantec.

I commented (again) at some length on the AVIEN blog: Support Scams and the Security Industry.
