    Windows Defender email asking for renewal scam


    Got following email and called #, but based on conversation quickly determined this was a scam. Was told that MS had stopped support for Windows Defender and I could not find any reference to Windows Defender anywhere in Windows system programs. Please confirm that this is not an issue and that this is probably a scam.
