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!!!
Microsoft 365 features that help users manage their subscriptions, account settings, and billing information.

I just wanted to say, that for some reason (maybe a fix by micosoft of my local cooperative's server?) the onmicrosoft spam has stopped. Maybe it'll come back, but it's a great relief for now!
I copied all of them and then... NO MORE came to the spam folder. But now I am getting sex spam.

You may be right, Lynn. I haven't been bombarded for a few days. I'll update this when I'm more comfortable confirming it.
I've taken your advice @Tigermann and sent an e-mail to c d o c c m @ m i c r o s o f t . c o m.
It contained a screenshot of the latest phishing example plus the internet headers details.
I also added a list of all the '.onmicrosoft.com' domains from which I've received similar phishing e-mails.
I've noticed that of the 94 domain names, nearly all appear to be company names! (For example,
'MercadoBentonTrading.onmicrosoft.com'.) I did a little research and they may well be names used by legitimate users but have somehow been hijacked by hackers.
This link, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/setup/add-or-replace-your-onmicrosoftcom-domain?view=o365-worldwide, explains for what these domains might be used. They appear to be what Microsoft term 'fallback domains' for Office 365 small business users. At any rate, it would appear that these socalled 'fallback domains' are vulnerable to hacking! You'd think Microsoft would be able to seal this breach!
Very Helpful, thank you Michael. I was wondering WHY these domains even exist, so now I have a better understanding. I'm sure I'm not the only one plagued by these annoying emails, and would like to see Microsoft do a better job of managing them.
Thanks!
