    Is Microsoft interested in being notified? If so, I'll forward it if there is an email address. If not, I'll delete it.

    phishing email

    While there are legitimate emails from the Microsoft account team,
    email phishing scams using the Microsoft name     are very common so you have to be very careful. A
    legitimate email address domain from Microsoft is @accountprotection.microsoft.com.


    This is an example of an older scam:
    Ask Leo: Is Windows Live Hotmail about to close my account?
