Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection Scam

I just received an identical email, but the price they quoted was $299.99.

The email contained numerous spelling and grammatical errors. I have no plans to contact them.

I just got this email and I suspected it was a scam. The number they gave me to call was 833 691 0800. So I called them to see what their pitch was. Sure enough, they ask me to type in a website to give them access to my computer. I told them my antivirus program was alerting me to a possible scam (it wasn't, but I wanted to hear their response). They pretended to be surprised and assured me they were legit and to disable my antivirus program temporarily. I was polite and hung up.

an anonymous user from: Burlington, Mt Laurel, New Jersey, United States

Just received the same email alerting me of a charge and when their is no "unsubscribe" option and you know you never registered for such a service, it's most likely a scam. I put it into my scam notification and checked to make sure they had not charged me somehow. how do these people get away with this when we provide information and knowing that there is someone trying to scam us?
