Sending, receiving, and organizing email in Outlook.com
I’ve opened my junk folder to find 170 dodgy emails from same sender - dos attack or not this is a disgrace that Microsoft need to get a grip on!

After a fairly quiet six months-or-so, I am suddenly getting a flood of SPAM from "******@agenciaidea.es".
I am talking around 50-per-day, and sometimes in batches of several within a few minutes.
They all have the same format, with purple writing at the top and the "advert" appearing as an image below.
Also, the "To:..." is never my email address, but a Hotmail address with a load of random letters (e.g. "******@hotmail.com").
Help!

SOLUTION FOUND:
I logged in on the website instead of app and reported it as phishing and I seemed to have stopped receiving them. I was receiving over 150 per day. Fingers crossed this continues to work
I'm having the same problem. Over 200 spam mail a day. Removed all cookies, after that even more 🤔. Please microsoft fix this.
I had over 150 today. I used to think AMAZON was the worst, but Microsoft has taken number 1 spot.
How did MS become one of the biggest companies in the world if they can't even respond to the numerous complaints about this??
