Windows 10: Windows defender subscription renewal scam

I unfortunately called the number saying that my windows defender is being renewed and I will be charged for $399. I stupidly give access to my PC and bank account on my laptop. I turne it off when I realized it is a scams. Called my bank and blocked my account. How safe is for me to open my laptop again?

Microsoft subscription renewal?

No. Definitely not.

That's a scam.

Microsoft will never call you out of the blue.

Only if you have previously contacted the official Microsoft Support, they might call you.

Next time you receive such a call: Just hang up!
