Microsoft Support provides the following information for reporting Phishing or suspicious behavior: In the message list, select the message or messages you want to report. Above the reading pane, select Junk > Phishing > Report to report the message sender. I do not show that on my Outlook page when I have a phishing mail to report. Is it something I need to load? All I have is to put the message in Junk.

I just remembered that this activity may be linked to a stalker I had on Disqus nearly 3 years ago. It was an account in Germany which emailed me, threatened me, and claimed to have unfettered access to Disqus' user databases. I reported it to Disqus, but never received a response.

In the past few months I have received way too many emails auto generated stating that someone has tried to reset my password. The thing is that I have never generated these emails as I remember my password obviously and when I have to do a reset I follow the procedure from logged in. I suspect that someone is attempting to hack my account. I need you to try to locate the IP of where these requests are coming from please. Hope to hear back from you soon. Regards Massimo

I was able to install the report phishing ability.

I received an email from my own ID asking me to transfer money to his BitCoin wallet. I strongly believe that it is a scam email... When I tried to report it to Microsoft from Outlook, I was not able to since it's my own email ID... need help or guideline on what to do next.

The same happened to me just end of March. But I didn’t see the email until start of this month, as it’s in junk and I rarely open the email account on laptop. And I also tried to look into the activity but doesn’t seem to show any successful sign in except a lot of unsuccessful attempts from another country (which by the way is not me). And I tried to report the phishing but it wouldn’t get through since it’s my own email ID. And I can’t seem to find any email ID to get in touch with Microsoft

How do I directly report phishing or suspicous emails to Microsoft?
