Is this legit?

If so, what should I look for and do?

    I just received the Microsoft Russia/Moscow email in my junk file. Threatpost says this is a scam and to delete it.

    I've received a similar email, but the email address hiding behind the "Report this user" box is ******@techconsulting-alerts-1.com, which doesn't appear to be from Microsoft. Others have mentioned similar in this thread and need a response.

    Can you please respond?

    Thanks.

    This account is not mine. I have been receiving notices about this access for several months. I don't know anything about this account. It's virus.
