On June 22 I received an email from "Microsoft Outlook.com", specifically: "Admin Desk • ******@live.ca" stating: "We are closing all old versions of our Mailbox as from June 23rd, Please follow the attached below to update .
Before upgrading your account, please ensure that your password is correct.
Failure to verify your account with the Microsoft Update Attached File."

Please tell me if this is legitimate?! Thank you.

    To be safe, I would actually suggest changing your password. Since you clicked on the attachment, please run a virus scan on your PC to check for any malwares. Other than that you should be good.

    What does Microsoft do when we do flag the emails as spam or phishing?

    Apparently nothing, seems the only person having a harder time getting into my accounts is me
