I am getting 6-7 emails daily from infofeed. I have blocked the domain on everyone I received. This sender keeps changing the domain. How can I stop / block infofeed emails.

Examples:

infofeed@ some store

infofeed@ infofeed@MY UPDATE PART! I finally was able to block infofeed@ spam. Now I cannot block INFO@ emails. It is noon and have had 12 so far. None of the rules I set up before is working. I am now just deleting them.

Outlook | Web | Outlook.com | Email

No, sorry for the confusion. My Outlook rule runs against the Inbox, so it finds those messages where the header info has 'infofeed' or 'info@', and moves them directly into my Deleted Items folder, bypassing my Junk folder altogether. The part you could not read was an additional action I set up to forward the message 'as an attachment' (which is the only way I could get it to forward) to Microsoft's phishing email address [phish at office365 dot microsoft dot com.] I want to forward all of these to them so they can work on a solution. So this is now keeping my Junk folder clean, and I set the properties on my Deleted Items folder to display only the number of Unread messages so I can verify they are truly all junk. To do this, right-click on your Deleted Items folder, select Properties, and then Show Number of Unread Items. Hope this helps!

    I agree. I forwarded all of mine about two days ago and I have been "infofeed" free for two days. By far the longest ever. I was probably getting 30+ a day for the last 2-3 months or more.

    I have been forwarding my info and infofeed emails to report fishing at apwgdotorg. I received my first one today and its been at least 2 weeks.

    Maybe something has changed! UGH!

    That's great to hear. In monitoring my Junk folder since I've been forwarding these to the Anti-Phishing Working Group email address, I have gone from getting about 150 junk emails/day down to one or two. It's almost eerie how effective this has been, but I'm not complaining! :-)

    I received the same kick back when forwarding the emails as attachments. Only one out of ~700 emails though, so pretty successful. The last batch went out about 14 hours ago. Since then I have not received any more "infofeed" emails. Has to be the longest time period since I started noticing the emails. Also have not received any other spam emails (I forwarded as attachments, a few of those also). Maybe everyone is taking the weekend off....
