I received the same message as well. Of course, I didn't place an order for this software and was even more suspicious when the title of the message was misspelled Windown instead of Windows.
SCAM - Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection Firewall & Network Protection
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.

2021-08-03T23:52:17+00:00 How do these rotten people ever make money from people whose computers they pop up on with such a goofy set up? Can they actually talk people into giving their debit card and code number??? This was the first I had ever seen such a thing in many years online. Especially after they outright lie and say this is a service you paid for 3 years ago? Are ANY people that stupid?
