How do I block onmicrosoft.com SPAM EMAILS? I am getting relentlessly spammed and cannot seem to block these emails. This is a serious problem because about every third or forth email is this onmicrosoft.com SPAM EMAIL. I like office 365 but this is ridiculous!!!

    I've decided to script a temporary transport rule that junks/ quarantines everything ending on "number".onmicrosoft.com using regex expressions.

    It seems as if the generated onmicrosoft.com accounts always have a number as last character.

    (credits go to Knox203 in this article --> Spam increase from onmicrosoft.com addresses : r/msp (reddit.com) )

    However,

    Trying to execute this script using the Secure Application Model, it seems as if I have insufficient rights to create transport rules.

    I can't find a definitive answer if this is an application permission problem, or that this is by design. I can however if i use interactive signin, without the delegated application permissions.

    Any thoughts on this?

    We have loads of customers complaining about this rn. Logging into 400 tenants isn't an option unfortunately ;-)

    I'm getting the massive spam from this revolving door of onmicrosoft.com addresses. If MS can't figure out how to stop, what is so clearly coming from one spam house, then they have real problems.

    Clicking the The 'Unsubscribe' button on these SPAM email senders is the WORST thing you can do

    They will simply capture you email address for putting it onto MORE Spamming contact lists :-/

    no complicated script is necessary, just block everyting with .onmicrosoft.com in it.

    got a few warnings about people trying to hack my microsoft account. Then I get blown up by non stop spam emails using onmicrosoft email addresses. As a company you would be aware of this and you do nothing to stop it. This being on example, (******@Wodarde.onmicrosoft.com) saying my mcafee has expired.

    Get your house in order!
