Last week, my personal Outlook email started getting ~50 spam emails per day. I barely ever use this email address, so I am not sure how or why this began to happen. How can I stop all of this spam from getting to my inbox?
I have been flagging all of the emails as spam, but it doesn't seem to be stopping the influx of emails I am getting.

outlook/microsoft not interested don’t even acknowledge what your complaint is about and give rubbish advice a lot of the spam is disgusting explicit content fake emails from brands gambling nonsense etc sick to back teeth if these super wealthy companies doing nothing to stop this utter nonsense
This is great! Thank you so much for your help, I hope it works. I'm happy to hear it seems to have worked for you at least!
I suggest you read the message from Bradford on this page...and several of my messages a page (or 2?) back.
Bottom line, I didn't give up and followed some instructions re: email settings (not sure they helped).
Took a while, but things resolved 'on their own' about a month or so after my issue.
I was considering changing email, but didn't. Not saying this will be the case for everyone.
I started to get this same problem with around 100 spam emails per day around a week or two ago! Sooo annoying and it literally seems like there is nothing we can do! Did you give up? I am considering giving up using my outlook I have had for around 20 years.
