Has anyone ever heard of Guardio? It is apparently a download for your phone to keep it safe from scams. I received an offer for a 7 day free trial and they would charge me after that. It said due today $0!
It looked good so I joined it. Thinking 7 days free would be good because right now I am broke till I get my SS check. But it immediatley tried to charge me and sent me a notification that my payment did not go thru and to choose another form of payment.
So it's the scam, SMH

Guardio is real, but you need to use an affiliate link offered by a youtuber or you need to go to the correct website. Addationally, despite claims of a free trail, a hold will always be placed on your card. (usually a dollar) to ensure you'e giving an active account. at the end of the trail period the hold will be released and the monthly ammount will be charged.

That does sound like a scam. I never heard of it nor tried it.
