    TeamViewer - https://www.teamviewer.com/ - make remote control and screen sharing tools for remote support and online meetings. What is the context of your question? I'd treat an invoice for a service you haven't asked for as fraud or a phishing attempt. If the software has shown up on your computer uninvited I'd be worried about what information has been taken by whom, and what other software has been installed. It's all in the details.

    FROM THE OTHER THREAD

    --

    To uninstall TeamViewer for Mac OS X, follow these steps: Open the TeamViewer preferences. Open the Advanced tab. Under Uninstall, click the Uninstall button.

    How do I uninstall TeamViewer under Mac OS X?

    ---------

    TeamViewer is a SOFTWARE Company - legit in all ways.

    SCAMmers use their NAME to fool you - THEN they use TeamViewer software to take control of your Mac.

    IF you allowed them access to your Mac, consider it compromised and erase the drive(s) - if you gave them a credit card, cancel it immediately and contest the charge with your issuer - change ALL of your Passwords to everything.
