Story: gmail was hacked. Number to call to report is a 3rd party company--Viztech. They tell me I have Trojan crap on devices and they will clean everything up for $399. Also share rates for Best Buy etc. is this third party company, Viztech, just another scam or legit?

Thanks

That sounds sketchy. Do you absolutely need your current gmail account? If not, just contact them and close it and just open another account.

This has to be a scam.


Sounds like someone else had the same question.

So whoever you were talking to was NOT Google support nor anyone authorized by Google to provide support.
