Chinese hackers at it again. It’s crazy; I’ve changed my password twice lol. They really want this account.
For keeping malware off your machine Windows Defender and some common sense should be perfectly fine, although I would recommend running ConfigureDefender and choosing whatever security level you find most appropriate for your use case. Also if you ever suspect you have malware that Defender didn't detect, just download the free version of malwarebytes, do a quick scan and uninstall it again; it's highly unlikely that something would make it past both of them.

Windows 11 built-in security is quite good, particularly when paired with the likes of ConfigureDefender or DefenderUI which allows you to tweak the built-in protection https://github.com/AndyFul/ConfigureDefender but there are third party options out there. Andy Ful also has system hardening tools that add an extra layer of protection but there have been some compatibility issues with windows new SmartApp Control feature https://github.com/AndyFul/Hard_Configurator/tree/master/Simple%20Windows%20Hardening .

LPT: when taking tests requiring a monitoring software on your personal device, download a virtual machine (ex.OracleVM) and set up windows on it.
Windows Sandbox is literally made for this, is lighter, integrated into the OS and free.

Fake "Geek Squad" auto-renewal refund email scam (no "kindly"!!)
He directed me to start a browser, which I did inside Windows Sandbox (a new lightweight container-based VM-ish on Windows). He asked me to go to "9190.org" in the browser, enter the invoice number. That downloads a "ScreenShareClientRefund.exe" which he instructed me to start. At that point I told him "Nice try, scammer! That would have fooled a lot of people." He hung up - no drama.
