It can also be a virus on your own email account, using and old email on your system as a back door.
I would suggest running a good anti-virus (Not Norton) in safe mode, I would also amend you paypal password – on a different machine and NEVER allow you pc to remember a banking or payment passwork You may be best taking it to be cleaned.

There are phone numbers and I think email is supp...@myheritage.com<mailto:supp...@myheritage.com> Others have had refunds on complaint. MyHeritage tends to renew subscription without advance warning. Their support has improved though seems to have some way to go. On the other hand, as Jennie says, it may not have been MyHeritage.

I clicked on the update to ensure that my computer was protected with the latest patches. Very shortly afterward I received an email confirming a subscription to My Heritage. I did not want it. I did not see anything asking if I wanted a subscription. It was paid via PayPal even though I had not touched my PayPal account. I had not used a MyHeritage subscription for a very long time because I did not like MyHeritage. Their software was however still on my computer. I was short of time and am not tech savvy so I clicked on the software update to protect my computer from “backdoor” cyber attacks. With hindsight, it was a bit odd because I do not recall ever receiving software update notices from MyHeritage in the past. I am disgusted with MyHeritage and fear that they will eventually corrupt Millennia / Legacy. When I have time, I will try to delete MyHeritage software from my computer. Be warned! John
