Report a suspicious email

Something feels off: an invoice you did not expect, a boss asking for gift cards, a link to “verify” your password. Do not click. Report it. It takes five seconds.

Before you start

  • Nothing. If you already clicked or typed a password, skip to the bottom.

Steps

  1. Outlook on the web and new Outlook. Select the message, then select Report, then Report phishing. Microsoft's page.

  2. Classic Outlook. On the ribbon, select Report Message, then Phishing. Microsoft's page.

  3. Gmail. Open the message. Next to Reply, select More, then Report phishing. Google's page.

  4. Outlook on your phone. Open the message, tap the three dots, tap Report Junk, then Phishing.

What happens next

  • The message moves to junk and the sender is reported. In Outlook the sender is still allowed, so block them if they keep coming.
  • If you clicked or typed a password: call +1 888 274 3530 now. See When an account looks compromised.
