Windows 10: Received a security info replacement email, login log showed someone using a vpn to make...

Hi,I have updated login info and the 2fa. how am i supposed to know if the reset security info request has been blocked? Miscrosft acc pages is quite poor at showing this info log and doesnt show the reset info request either.The login history did show someone from many countries , poss a vpn user failing every day for the last month to login and then i receive the email.The email it was sent from is a Microsft email and is identical to the one used for security codes etc.How can i be assured the attempt is blocked. Thanks.

security info for my email account was replaced. Why would I receive this from live when the email account is not with live.

I received a text stating that the security info for my email account was replaced. Visit Sign in to your Microsoft account. When I went to this address I was given a warning that it is not secure. Why would I receive this from live when the email account
is not with live. Is this a scam.

 

Vpn ( trusted Vpn)

Hi everyone.
I am not an expert about Vpn and that's why I would like to know if someone could list me a few trusted Vpns, I would really appreciate any suggestion/ advice.

Thanks.

 

"Security Info Replacement" Email - Scam or legit?

Perusing the threads, have found some mentions of this dating back several years - but no definitive answer.

Received an email this morning stating from "Microsoft account team" (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***)

Email stated that someone "started a process to replace all security info for the Microsoft account f******" , i.e. loosely indicating my account.

The email then proceeded to provide three separate links to confirm it was me, click if it wasn't me, or click to remove the email from the account. I didn't identify or follow any of the links out of caution.

Looks very phish-y, no official logos, etc. Logged into my account today and saw no log-in activity beyond my own, and changed my password for good measure. Just wanted to check if there happens to be any type of validity to these type of communications,
as generally things like this don't breach my email's spam filters.

Thanks in advance for any help.
