Unusual Microsoft account login

Question

Unusual Microsoft account login

Giovanni Pugliese 5

I am receiving some alert e-mails from Microsoft telling that some unusual logins have been noticed at my account coming from Brazil. Also the incoming IP addresses are noticed.

If I go to the IDENTITY console and check in the SIGN-IN LOGS I cannot find any sing in coming from the IPs received from MS.

How can it be possible?

I double checked the e-mail I received and I am sure they are really coming from MS... It is not Phishing.

Any idea?

Thanks.

There may be some latency so I would advise you do not check immediately. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/monitoring-health/reference-log-latency
