Windows Defender Scam Email

[Mech#Instr]

I got this email in my Spam folder. I have not been charged on any credit card for this amount. Hope this will help stop this type of activity. I did call the number and I did get through to a "John Foster" (with Indian accent of course). I didn't give my real name and I gave him the account # on email. He said it was charged today (3/9/21) even though it said it was ordered on 3/6/21. He also claimed it was charged to a Visa card but he couldn't give me any information about that card. He claimed his company's name is Alpha Solutions LLC but wouldn't tell me where this was located.


I told him this was a fraudulent charge and email and will be reporting it, both to Microsoft and the BBB.
