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

    I am also getting multiple scam/junk emails purportedly from Temu every hour and reporting them as junk or phishing to Microsoft does absolutely nothing to stop the deluge. Each email comes from a different sender address and creating a rule to block emails with 'Temu' in the subject or sender address does not work for whatever reason, they still get through and running the rule sees them remain in the inbox. Microsoft are getting more and more useless by the day,

    I agree. I am getting approx 10+ a day. I report all as spam and the block sender. Some however state "cannot block emails from your own organisation". ****?? How do we stop these, it's SO annoying

    Have a try at the Actions in the Rules.

    I have chosen to be petty and passive aggressive and redirect the emails back to a known phishing email address. I have marked them as junk and delete also but when I put the redirect action in I haven't had any come through to me since but it's only been 1 day since I put that in.

    But I was getting at least minimum 6 phishing scam spam emails a day before.

    So go back to your blocked email list and choose away ones to redirect to 😈

    Or if you concerned about that pissing them off more make a new email address that can be the email address you redirect to and maybe the email you use for signing up for junk things you don't really want email a from.

    Side note make sure all your accounts have 2 factor authentication turned on in case their attacks become a bit more aggressive.

    I opted out of the emails but I'm not sure what it will do. How can I protect my email from all their s*it?
