Azure: Deactivated Severity: 2 alert-0225174725

Question

I got this email twice in my inbox with this subject line. I personally don't use Azure. Can someone tell me who to contact?

Answer 1

I have not seen the mail, but the first thing to check is if the sender address seems legit. That is, the address should be microsoft.com and nothing else. If there are any links in the mail, check these as well by hovering over them.

If sender and/or links are suspicious, just delete it. It's likely to be some phishing attempt.

If the mail seems legit... Again, I have not seen it, but if you are not using Azure, I would just ignore it and move on. Even more so if you got this in your private mailbox.

Answer 2

If you received an email regarding a deactivated Azure alert and you do not use Azure, it is likely that the email was sent to you in error or because you are part of a group that receives such notifications. To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:

1. Inspect the Email: Check the 'To:' line of the email to see if your email address or a group address is listed. If you are part of a group, the email may have been sent to that group.
2. Contact Customer Support: Since you do not use Azure, it would be best to contact Microsoft Customer Support for assistance. They can help clarify why you received the email and take any necessary actions.

You can find more details on how to contact support through the Microsoft support page.
