Junk Emails Suddenly going to Inbox Feb 2023

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

    Ditto,

    Had this email for 25 years and counting. Junk mail constantly hitting inbox - focused and other. What is going on Microsoft?? They changed something and it's not a good look. We have made and can make no changes that would cause this. Seems system wide and they need to quickly UNDO whatever it is that they have done!
