    Microsoft Windows Defender Protection security scam


    I received a email that I was billed for $299.99 for a plan.I did not authorize this so I called the number, it appears to be a scam as they wanted me to type in a RSUPPORT.US address and fill out a cancelation form, they would not tell me what credit card I was charged until after the form was filled out.Needless to say I did not fill out any form.There accent sounded like Nigerian.the phone number was 1-888-756-1773
