Junk Emails Suddenly going to Inbox Feb 2023

Anonymous

Hi, I had my hotmail account for over 20 years and I never had an issue like this. As of this morning at 4am ALL of my junk emails are going to my inbox. No settings have been amended.

Since I've had this account for many years every 5 minutes I receive a junk in my inbox. Ive searched for a solution online but all I can see is for outlook and not outlook/hotmail 365. I've tried everything at this point, from rules to flagging wit no help. Has anyone experienced the same? Microsoft doesnt seem to have a customer service team to help?

Many thanks

Same problem with my hotmail account, which I have had for over 25 years, here in New Zealand.

Same thing happened to me. Junk is going to inbox and inbox is going to junk. I've had my account since hotmail started over 20 years ago. With all the people complaining on the same day about this same problem, I'm sure it's a system problem. I hope it's fixed asap.
