Microsoft Support provides the following information for reporting Phishing or suspicious behavior:

  1. In the message list, select the message or messages you want to report.
  2. Above the reading pane, select Junk > Phishing > Report to report the message sender. A screenshot of the Junk button in Outlook.com.

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 haven't - the promised button in Outlook has never appeared for me, so no way to report phishing or brute force attacks on my account

    To Nick,

Try this in www . Outlook . com in a Windows computer....   (not the application or the mail app).  
- Click / Select the offending email.  
- Report  - will hilghlight when an email is selected  
- Report Phishing or Report Junk  

 Good luck.

    I'm using my Outlook app via cell phone. I have been doing the steps listed for quite some time now on a daily basis without resolve. The fraudulent emails are all from the same email sender and I have googled that email and found it's from another country. Please blacklist this sender

    ******@shakbal.com

    Thank you for your time and any help you can provide the number of these emails per day are alarming.
