Attempt to access my Microsoft Account when viewing Microsoft Security from sky.com domain

Hello,

 

I noticed someone using the sky.com domain attempted to access my Microsoft Account when reviewing my Microsoft Security.

 

How do I report this to be investigated?

 

I sent it to: abuse@sky.com but it got rejected.

 

Thanks

Do you mean from an IP address assigned by Sky as an ISP?

 

Realistically, no ISP 'investigates' such things outside of receiving a court order, warrant or similar.

@js12345dfsdfgsd  If you don't want attempted hacks on your IP then you certainly shouldn't be posting that info in a public forum.

 

That post has now been removed.

 

The info provided by @TimmyBGood  is correct.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

The address you posted is not 'someone using the sky.com domain' : it's a public IP dynamically assigned by Sky to one of their six million or so broadband subscription households

.

As I said, no-one 'investigates' such things without proof of an actual or alleged crime serious enough to convince a judge: an apparent (presumably failed) attempt at an unauthorized log-in is very far from that.
