Hi, there,

I receive the same email with the same subject of "Reset your Windows Live
password?" every day in my inbox,

I clicked the first link, and it told me to input my hotmail account. Is it
really an email from Microsoft Windows Team? If not, how can I report it to
Microsoft Windows Live to prevent from the junks? Below is the sample of
emails. Please give me advice.
