I am receiving emails about $800 billing for Power BI which I did not subscribe to.

    Hello,

    What's the sender's email address?

    I've seen similar PowerBI scam. The sender address may look legitimate because it is a real Microsoft Power BI notification address. However, the message content is not from Microsoft. Here is how the scam works: the scammer creates a Power BI dashboard and adds your email as a subscriber. Power BI then sends an automated notification from its official system, which makes the email address appear “Microsoft sent this.” The scammer controls the dashboard content, so they design the notification to include fake support language and a phone number, hoping you will call and be scammed. Do not call the number or follow any instructions in the message.
