I am getting Emails From "Temu." and I Have No Idea What They Are

I am familiar with Temu, although I don't use it, have never made an account, signed up, or interacted with it in any way whatsoever

this started today, where I keep getting emails in my Inbox from a sender called "Temu." (I've not opened any of the emails to look at the other email to see if it's legit or not). I've gotten 3 in total, which I've all deleted

the first 2 had a description: "You have won an Temu pallets". first came in at 11am, second came in at 3pm

the most recent one either came in at 6pm or 7pm, I forgot to make note, but it had a description along the lines of: "RE: confirm your receipt"

I have blocked the sender every single time on each of these emails but it hasn't made a difference. if the third email came in at 7pm, then if I'm not mistaken that's 4 hours apart between each email

is anyone else receiving these or...why do I keep getting these? is it more likely that it's a spam email if I've blocked the sender and it keeps working around it? it keeps coming to my Inbox, not Spam

    Okay so after figuring out how to get the chat support up this is the instructions I was given. I guess we'll find out in 24hrs if it works and seems they are aware of the issue and hopefully really are working on it.

    Here is the instructions copied and pasted from chat with support :

    "I will be helping you with some sort of steps to follow to reduce the spam in your account and Karla, I have checked with my team and Tier-2 department. They have filed the bug regarding your issue, as the issue is emerging also with other users. Please be rest assured that our Engineering team is working on it and your issue will be resolved soon.

    I would request you to please click on the below link: https://outlook.live.com/mail/0/options/mail/junkEmail

    >> then scroll down and click on the last option Filters and then select both the filters and then click on save and then again deselect those filters and then click on save and then lout from your account and login again to your account, as this will refresh your Spam/junk filters in your account which will help you to get rid from these spam mails in your account."

    Was advised to do this 3-4 more times over the next 24 hours and if it did not work to raise a ticket with them again. Fingers crossed because this is beyond a joke. I've already signed up for a gmail account incase I cant get this to stop.

    Opting out or unsubscribing from their email's ain't going to work as their email's aren't official. Your only inviting and encouraging them to send more fake marketing stuff. You can tell by their email address prefix which is like a scribble before the @ symbol. most official email address would have for example: *** Email address is removed for privacy *** instead of asdr;*** Email address is removed for privacy *** If opting out or unscribing is official then that prefix of the email address would look official. Check em all out.

    I'm getting the same issuebut with differing results dependent on the device I use. I'm running the latest version of the new outlook in Windows 10, and it is effectively sending all the Temu mail directly to the Junk folder.

    But on my iphone 15, running the MS Outlook app, it comes straight to my inbox. I can't see to find any effective junk mail settings for the IOS app.
