Tips to Spot a Phishing \u200dEmail in Outlook<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Phishing is a scam used by hackers to swindle you. Here\u200b are three ways you can identify phishing emails in Outlook:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Check the sender\u2019s address and name. Phishing emails often appear to be from real businesses, but they usually \u2062have bogus email addresses and the sender&#8217;s name is usually unrecognizable. If the sender address \u200band name seem suspicious, the email could\u200b be a phishing attempt.<\/li>\n<li>Look for grammatical mistakes\u200b or typos. In a phishing email, hackers don\u2019t particularly care\u2063 about grammar or spelling, so you&#8217;ll often spot typos if the email \u200dis a scam.<\/li>\n<li>Be wary of unsolicited \u2064emails asking for confidential information. Phishing emails often try to get you to provide personal \u200binformation like your \u200cusername and \u200dpassword. Such requests should raise your suspicions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Legitimate emails sent by an organization will usually\u200d contain contact information so you can reach out if you\u2019re concerned about the \u200cemail. Emails\u200c from scammers usually lack such contact information. Additionally, they don\u2019t usually require immediate action. Be sure to read emails thoroughly before taking any steps.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"4-how-to-report-phishing-email-in-your-outlook-account\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4%E2%81%A4_How_to%E2%81%A4_Report_Phishing_Email_in_Your_Outlook_Account\"><\/span>4.\u2064 How to\u2064 Report Phishing Email in Your Outlook Account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Keep \u2064Your Account Safe<\/b><\/p>\n<p>At Outlook, our priority is to keep your account safe and secure.
