Report to Norton

The short answer
Forward fake Norton renewal invoices and refund-scam emails
The Norton scam is almost always an invoice. A PDF or email says your subscription auto-renewed for a few hundred dollars, and gives a number to call to cancel it. Norton takes these at spam@norton.com. Send the message as an attachment rather than a screenshot, because the headers are the useful part.
What they handle
- Fake Norton or LifeLock renewal and auto-renewal invoices
- Refund scams that start from one of those invoices
- Phishing emails using the Norton or LifeLock name
- Spam claiming your Norton subscription has expired
How to file a report
- 1
Forward it as an attachment, from a webmail client
Right-click the message and choose "Forward as Attachment", then send it to spam@norton.com. Forwarding normally strips the headers Norton needs. Forwarding as an attachment keeps them.
- 2
Or drag the message into a blank email
Create a blank message addressed to spam@norton.com and drag the suspicious email into it, which attaches it whole. Norton lists this as an equivalent route.
- 3
Or paste the headers, if neither works
Norton documents how to extract the technical headers in Outlook, Gmail, Yahoo and AOL, then paste them into an email to the same address. On a phone, opening the message and forwarding it normally is accepted.
- 4
Check the real subscription yourself
Sign in at norton.com and look at your subscription there. That is the only accurate record of what you are paying, and checking it is exactly what the invoice is counting on you not doing.
What you'll need
- The invoice email itself, as an attachment
- The phone number the invoice tells you to call
- Any payment or remote-access software you were talked into, if you called
What to expect
Norton states that spam@norton.com does not send updates back, and that submissions get manual or automated review. Treat it as intake rather than a support case. If you called the number and let someone onto your machine or moved money, that is a tech-support scam. The urgent steps there are with your bank, not with Norton.
Frequently asked questions
Is the address spam@nortonlifelock.com?
No. Norton's current support page gives spam@norton.com as the sole address for reporting spam and scam email. The nortonlifelock.com form of it is not what Norton publishes.
I called the number on the invoice. What now?
Treat it as a tech-support scam rather than a billing question. If you allowed remote access, disconnect that device and change your passwords from a different one. If you paid, call your bank immediately. Reporting the email afterwards does not undo either.
