Business ProfileforOmega Software Solutions LLC

On 2/17/2021, BBB requested the business confirm the ownership, management, and location of the business, as well as clarify the nature of its business. To date, this information has not been provided. BBB has been unable to confirm the authenticity of numerous reviews submitted for this business. Because BBB is unable to establish a reasonable degree of confidence about the validity of these reviews, BBB has removed all reviews for this business. In January, 2021, BBB investigated Omega Software Solutions LLC's business practices. This investigation was prompted by complaints that allege that the business is a tech support scam.

Specifically, consumers allege that they contracted with the business to resolve virus/malware issues, and after being told that they had "been hacked" or "had pornogrpahy on their computer", they were sold additional software. Once the software was installed, they were told the software would not work on their system and needed to be uninstalled so new software could be installed. During the refund process, financial transactions were initiated outside of the control of the client, resulting in them being directed to either purchase gift cards or wire funds in thousands of dollars to correct the payment error.
