    Our latest report – “The State of the Scamiverse”

    2026 scamiverse report

    Scams have become so realistic that most people don’t realize they’ve been targeted until after the damage is done. McAfee’s latest research shows Americans now receive an average of 14 scam messages per day, and spend 114 hours a year trying to figure out what’s real and what’s fake online.

    As scams increasingly use professional branding, deepfake voices, and QR codes, consumer confidence in spotting fraud is falling, even as awareness rises.

    This report analyzes how today’s scams work, why warning signs are changing, and what the data reveals about where digital fraud is headed next

    -Subscription, Free Trial, Pricing and Automatic Renewal Terms:

    • The amount you are charged upon purchase is the price of the first term of your subscription. The length of your first term depends on your purchase selection. 30 days before your first term is expired, your subscription will be automatically renewed on an annual basis and you will be charged the renewal subscription price in effect at the time of your renewal, until you cancel (Vermont residents must opt-in to auto-renewal.)
    • Unless otherwise stated, if a savings amount is shown, it describes the difference between the introductory first term price (available only to customers without an existing McAfee subscription) and the renewal subscription price (e.g., first term price vs. each year thereafter).
    • Pricing is subject to change. If the renewal price changes, we will notify you in advance so you always know what’s going on.
    • You can cancel your subscription or change your auto-renewal settings any time after purchase from your My Account page. To learn more, click here.
    • You will be provided a full refund upon request, by contacting Customer Support within 30 days of your initial purchase or 60 days of auto-renewal.
    • Your subscription is subject to our License Agreement and Privacy Notice. Subscriptions covering "all" devices are limited to supported devices that you own. Product features may be added, changed or removed during the subscription term.  Not all features may be available on all devices.  See System Requirements for additional information.
    • Free Trial Terms: At the end of your trial period you will be charged $39.99 for the first term. After the first term, you will be automatically renewed at the renewal price (currently $109.99/yr). We will charge you 7-days before renewal. You can cancel at any time before you are charged. ​
    • Plans with unlimited device protection cover only household devices that you own for personal, non-commercial use, and are subject to our fair use policy. If you have an issue adding a device, please contact Customer Support.

    -**Free Benefits With Auto-Renewal:

    • For many qualifying product subscriptions McAfee offers additional benefits for free when you are enrolled in auto-renewal. You can check your eligibility for these benefits in your My Account page. Not all benefits are offered in all locations or for all product subscriptions.  System Requirements apply.   Turning off auto-renewal terminates your eligibility for these additional benefits. 
    • Virus Protection Pledge (VPP): If we cannot remove a virus from your supported device we’ll refund you the amount you paid for your current term subscription.  The refund does not apply to any damage or loss caused by a virus.  You are responsible for backing up your data to prevent data loss.
