Hi,
I have been receiving an email about resetting my Microsoft password so far today i received 6 messages with the code to reset. This email has not been open in awhile, however i do have it linked to my phone for easy accessibility to emails. How do i get the emails to stop.

I have received 8 of those emails this week and several last week - I have not requested a password reset, and I am logged in successfully, although I rarely read my Outlook email.
It's not from selecting Forgot Password. I'm logged in. I'm getting several of those messages a day for the past week.
You must remember it’s not you that’s requesting the password change it’s either a spam or somebody else in the world that has your email address which I’m sure a lot of people do and a lot of sites do and they just keep keep keep on clicking forgot password and that’s why you keep getting that message to change your password
Mine also showed 11 sync attempts from Russia, Bulgaria, Taiwan, China, France.
Exactly the same issue here. Loads of password reset requests every day for the last week or so
