I just received this email, now for $399.00. Have been searching for a usable contact number. # in email is bogus. The Microsoft website is absolutely useless.
How did you stop this company from charging your credit card?

I received a scam email regarding order confirmation for the above this morning - One year subscription for $299.99. I did not order this and I did not call phone number listed(1-888-601-2806).
I just wanted to advise you of this email. I have received a similar SCAM last year.

2021-08-24T20:13:48+00:00 I just received the same scam from Microsoft Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection Firewall & Network Protection that said I purchased today for $399.00 on 24-08-2021 at 2:52pm.
With a phone number to contact as +1 (877) 542-1879.
I don't bother call this number after reading all the similar reports.
