Why Outlook's junk email filter isn't working and What We Know About the Phishing Issue
You are not alone if you discover that your email inbox is flooded with communications on this Monday. Microsoft Outlook users have been venting their annoyance online about what seems to be an issue with their junk blocker. Due to this issue, users are now getting an excessive amount of spam that would usually be forwarded elsewhere.
For instance, the Twitter user @bdsams shared a screenshot of what appeared to be his inbox, which was overflowing with blatantly pointless junk. We're talking about bogus security alerts, arbitrary email addresses, and outright phishing efforts to steal information.
It is not immediately clear what is causing the issue or when, if at all, it can be resolved. Mashable contacted Microsoft in an attempt to get clarification and more information, but we did not receive a response right away. Whenever there is fresh information or remarks from the company, we will update the story.
When he woke up this morning, Tom Warren of The Verge noted that his Outlook mailbox already held twenty spam messages, and that additional ones kept coming in throughout the morning. If you visit Twitter, you will see that Warren is far from the only individual who shares those sentiments.
British author and scholar Hallie Rubenhold shared her opinions on Twitter, writing, "I'm under attack. Please put a stop to it, whoever you are!"
People should always maintain a tidy and organized inbox, especially when it comes to their work lives. We can only hope that more details will soon become accessible, along with some kind of resolution to the apparent issue.
