- A legitimate Microsoft email address ([email protected]) is being used to deliver scam spam.
- Microsoft advises users to add this address to their allow lists to prevent spam filters from blocking it.
- The scam email falsely claims a $399 charge and provides a phone number to dispute the transaction, leading to a remote access scam.
- Online searches reveal multiple reports of similar scam emails, some reported on Microsoft’s own website.
- Scammers are abusing a Power BI function that allows external email addresses to be added as subscribers for reports.
