Windows 10: Reporting a scam or phishing phone claiming to be from Microsoft

We've had quite a few scam-phishing phone calls to our landline, showing that number and the recorded name says Allison calling from Microsoft. I've heard it a few times and something about the license expiring. I know Microsoft doesn't call and when a product is up for renewal, they send an email. I want to report this to their corporate security people. How do I do that?

This is to a landline phone and not anything related to the computers. I'm not having an easy time finding about how to go about reporting this.

Phishing scams.

Where are you seeing the phishing links?

If in a browser then use an adblocker (for Edge I recommend Adguard & Ghostery, for others use AdBlock plus).

If these don’t help you might be infected.

If they’re within emails you can report these to your ISP, if the phishers are using Yahoo, Gmail or hotmail/outlook accounts then you can report them to the respective provider - usually they have a specific email address to send these to.

MS:

Open the phishing email you want to report in Outlook.com.

Click the down arrow next to Junk in the Outlook.com toolbar.

Select Phishing scam from the drop-down menu that appears.

Yahoo:

Locate the phishing email in your inbox, trash or spam folder and click the selection box next to it. Click the chevron next to "Spam" on the toolbar. Don't click "Spam" directly or the message will simply be marked as spam and moved to your Spam folder. Click
"Report a Phishing Scam" on the menu that appears.

Gmail:

On a computer, go to Gmail.

Open the message.

Next to Reply Reply, click More More.

Note: If you're using classic Gmail, click the Down arrow Down Arrow.

Click Report phishing.
