My Outlook inbox is suddenly getting a ton of spam and I don't know how to stop it

msn in general..as a whole has completely gone down the crapper. from the left wing views to censorship on the blogs for each and every article thats posted on the news. i have been censored for saying stuff you wouldnt believe..this email thing is a ploy to get people to pay for services they wouldnt normally need to they try to allow your email to get spammed to the point of either pay..deal with it or leave and a lot are leaving. bill gates is a dipsht..and msn follows suit

Not entirely true. I have Microsoft 365 family and the spam emails are out of control. I noticed if I just deleted them, they reduced but now.... Now they just come directly into my focus inbox.

Microsoft, Hotmail/ Outlook accounts have become rubbish accounts. Ever since I paid for more storage I am now getting 10 to 20 time more spam. over 100 junk mail every day. The more you report, the more junk you get. Microsoft just don't seam to care anymore. You cant ever get real help. The scammers have work out how to get around blocking and keep changing email addresses. There needs to be a way that emailers need approval to send mail to you.

So what is the solution here? Because blocking each email isn't working?

There needs to be a solution. Is it to remove this email and create a new one or what??

After 20 years with my Microsoft account I'm done. Not renewing my subscription anymore after I moved my 200+ GB data to Google. Already moved a lot of my mail there. I'll have to keep the mail address because of the history but not using it actively anymore. It's become utterly useless. Costs me serious time each day. Inbox rules don't work.
