Microsoft,

please take action in blocking in some way the continous spam emails from: 73 Botley Road, PA20 7FZ, MIDPARK

I have done everthing: unsubscribe from these emails, block, report as phising, set rules, ... but nothing works. They keep on comming in.

I read that a lot of people are encountering this issue, all comming from this same address: 73 Botley Road, PA20 7FZ, MIDPARK

Please take action here !

Greetings.

Maybe you didn't know, but clicking Unsubscribe in a message that isn't legit is just going to open you up to more spam.

Also, there's absolutely nothing you can do to prevent an email from arriving in your mailbox.

If the emails are going to your Junk Email folder then the system is working.

No one from Microsoft is going to see this and do anything about it. Just you moving the spams into the Junk Email folder reports it to the backend servers.

    In order to stop myself going crazy about SPAM & Phishing, I no longer look into from whom they were sent, I don't even open any of the emails I do not easily and readily recognise. Instead, I just select the relevant button to select all the emails in the Junk folder and click on Report. Until Microsoft and all other major organisations take it seriously and decide to do something about it, Junk & Phishing emails will continue. I have decided not to let it bother me and just press the Report and Delete buttons, and keep my sanity.

    After this suggestion Bernie, I was able to relieve part of my stress with the junk mail. But I adapted a bit.

    I also implement rule based on words in subject or mail, but instead of deleting, the mail is moved to junk. Adding exception to not move to junk when sender includes "@". This way mails with sender address come to inbox and can be reviewed and blocked if required. Also I can review the junk mails folder, but interval is several days.

    Probably scammers invent new techniques soon. It would be good that governing parties train people how to recognize scam. Now it feels their purpose is just to interrupt us few times in an hour and make us stupid analysing the same content all time. So better to also have no alert when e-mails arrive.

    Anyway the emails with no sender go to junk now. The normal Microsoft junk setting is less severe now.

    As a tip. In outlook you can set a rule for recognition of the word Midpark and as an action sent the emailings to your spam folder. It really helps.

    Perfect, I already had some rules for some of the common ones but didn't think to spam anything with their address in. This works great, cheers.
