Red Dog Media PC Utility Kit Flim-Flam Shell Game New York City, New York

27th of Feb, 2013 by User195115

I needed a computer cleaner (for registry keys) and was searching for one that was free. I came across PC Utility Kit. It said "Free" however, it took me to a page where I had to pay $29.97, just to get out. The next page had an 888 number and I called it to tell them I didn't want it. The man I spoke with claimed that this product was Microsoft and that he was a Microsoft representative. This product may be Microsoft compatible but that's not the same thing as BEING Microsoft! I told him I didn't want the product and he became cold and distant. He said everything would be alright but after we hung up, my computer was working worse than before I spoke with him. He asked me for my email address and I believe he did a 'trash dump' on my computer. Later, I found my bank had been charged $39.94!!! I got the name of a really good and genuinely free uninstaller from my computer person (Revo Uninstaller) and I removed the PC Utility Kit and the trash dump off of my computer. I also got another really good registry cleaner called FixRegCleaner. I had to pay for this one, but it works well and I don't mind having to pay for something that works so well. PC Utility Kit is a lemon and the company a flim-flam shell game. I don't recommend getting involved with this company that went by the name of Red Dog Media. I see they have changed that name to Boost By Reason. Don't walk, run!

They advertise a free download to try, you download it then after you run a scan the program tells you to go register to receive your free license key to activate the program so it will work. On that register page you enter your name and email address to receive the license key. All you receive is an email reminding you that you have a PC Utility Kit in your cart to purchase..Boring, spammy and a total waste of time brought to you by Red Dog Meida..
