Is Ubertech support a scam? I have Macbook Pro OSX Yosemite 10.10.3. I got led into callling Uber techsupport after I apparently picked up an infection from an on-line platform. I paid $299 and spent 2 hours with their technicians

IS UBERtech Support legit? Macbook Pro MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011) 8.1OSZ Yosemite 10.10.3. 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3. 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7. I picked up a bad link from an online movie platform late last night and suddenly was directed by what looked like an Apple msg to call a number which turned out to be Ubertech Support --in Delhi. I agreed to pay $299 for the removal of an "infection." . I believe my computer was "cleaned" as they promised and when I refused to pay even more for their software, one of their technicians installed something for free called ADBlock and said I would now be protected for three years. He said ADBlock could also be trasnferred to my Iphone & Ipad. The bad link was LISTCHACK. They said my firewall had expired 19 or 20 days ago???? And that Apple would have tried to call me but if they got a recording would not have left a msg. They say there is a 45 day moneyback guaranty.

MacBook Pro (13-inch Early 2011), iOS 7.0.4, grey circle with arrow pops up
