So, this morning I have several emails purporting to be from Microsoft telling me that "unusual activity" has been detected with attempts to log in to my account from Ukraine & Estonia. Any tips on how I can tell if these emails are genuine - there's a flag on my account when I use Excel that wants me to change the password. Also when I opened up the laptop it advised there was a problem and to go to Teams which requires a password. The address the emails were sent from is:
Microsoft account team<account-security-noreply@accountprotection.microsoft.com
All suggestions welcome 🙂
^^ as above. Dont follow links from messages, go to the page yourself
I had something similar last year, the emails did stink of phishing, but hovering over the links they did appear to be microsoft.com. I find it annoying how many official company notices basically train customers to respond to phishing.
I tend to always ignore links in emails anyway, so just took it as an invitation to log onto my account, change my passwords and set up 2fa. So whether it is genuine or not you can just protect yourself without following any links.
