This morning on my Windows 10 laptop, I got a pop-up in the browser saying my computer was infected and telling me to call a number right away. I closed the page, but it came back once when I opened the browser again. Is this likely just a scam pop-up, and what should I check next?

This afternoon on my Windows 10 laptop, I got an e-mail that said my Microsoft account storage was full and I needed to click a link right away or some files might be deleted. It looked a little off to me, but I am not sure. Does this sound like phishing, and what should I do with it?
