Dear Sir,
I received an email from "no-reply@microsoft.com" with a question "Did you attempt to change your password ?".
Is the email "no-reply@microsoft.com" from microsoft ?

I received an email with almost the exact format, but in mine, there is an obvious grammar mistake that would get someone at Microsoft fired if they let it slip.
Never reply to any email about Security or Personal information if you have a shadow of a doubt.
Especially, if you click the link that says "no Not me" it makes you write a reply, to send to ab address that is shown as "No-Reply@NonStop .bla"

If you have changed your password no action is required.
If you have not changed your password kindly alert us.
What I don't understand is how did they get a Microsoft.com email??

If everything is okay, the email is not real.

I got the same email a few days ago. If you did not change your password, disregard the email. Maybe it was an error on the part of Microsoft, or maybe someone is trying to pretend to be Microsoft. If you see an unusual activity, kindly check this link: [https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/account-billing/what-happens-if-there-s-an-unusual-sign-in-to-your-account-eba43e04-d348-b914-1e95-fb5052d3d8f0
I definitely think that that is a spam, because the real emails from microsoft are totally different. I know this because I have been recieving password and security emails every once in a while, and they are definitely from microsoft.
I received this and not sure if real can anyone help? Thanks
