    Hello

    Are these emails already in junk folder? If so, Microsoft already identified and flagged them as junks. These emails are just bluffing and you shouldn't have to worry about it. Such threats/emails are also well documented, such as the Pegasus threat, if you google it, you will find tons of information about this. Bottom line - your account is safe, your computer is safe. They are using scare tactic and sometimes ID spoofing to make you believe that your account is compromised, so that they can blackmail you into doing what they asked you to do.
