Hi Ajinkya

Well done for being suspicious, if you are in touch with them, do not pay them and if you have, immediately stop that payment with your bank

This is a well known Tech Support SCAM, they are just trying to con people into thinking they have to pay for a free service . . .

Windows Security, including Defender, the Firewall . . etc is totally free and always will be . . .
