Reporting phishing on Hotmail

Until yesterday I had a button on my Hotmail inbox I could click to report phishing attempts. But I now have a new display which doesn't seem to have a phishing button. I used to send them loads of phishing emails from LloydsTSB with whom I don't even bank!

Is there still a quick way of doing this?

    The quickest way is to just ignore them. You can report them all you like but nobody is going to benefit from it.

    There is a button called 'mark as' which drops down to give you a choice including phishing scam.
