"Microsoft Outlook Mailbox is at Risk" Phishing Scam

The fake "Microsoft Outlook Mailbox is at Risk" email below is a scam. Therefore, recipients of the same email, which claims their account will expire shortly and they need to upgrade, are asked to delete it. This is because the links in the email go to a phishing website that steals account credentials, which the cybercriminals will use to hijack their potential victims' accounts and use them fraudulently.

This is why Microsoft Outlook users never click on links in emails to sign into their accounts. They should instead, go directly to www.outlook.com and sign-in from there. Once they have signed in, they will be notified of important updates or changes.
