Learn how to spot phishing scams 

Microsoft 365 email and the Outlook app provide further options for reporting phishing messages, which can help protect the campus community and improve message filtering.  

Note: Outlook versions vary, and some interface elements can be customized – so specific details may be different on your device. 
The Report Phishing option may not be available in Outlook for non-UMass accounts.

Note: In Outlook Desktop on Windows or Mac OS, you may have a toggle switch in the upper right of the window for New Outlook, which enables an updated user interface.  
New Outlook uses the same process to report phishing attempts as Outlook Web App (outlook.office.com).
