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.
