Spot something ‘phishy’ in your inbox? Outlook’s built-in “Report” tool lets you quickly flag dodgy messages, and helps Microsoft improve detection.
How to:
– In the Outlook desktop app or web version, click on the email in your inbox to preview it in the Reading Pane — no need to open it fully.
– Click the Report button in the toolbar (sometimes labelled Junk or Phishing).
– Choose Phishing or Junk, depending on the content.
– The email will be flagged and moved out of your inbox.
Pro-Tip: Reporting dodgy messages helps train Microsoft’s filters and protects others in your organisation too.
They always provide excellent advice and support so we have total confidence in their ability no matter the challenge we set them.
