spam emails info@social.twinkl.co.uk

I keep getting emails into my junk folder purporting to be from the address info@social.twinkl.co.uk

This address cannot be correct. I have put it into my list of blocked senders but the emails continue to arrive at the rate of several per day. I have also tried setting up a "rule" in Outlook but that is not effective. 

These emails are all marked as "unverified" and often contain a name of an online casino (may well be fictional). I am guessing that info@social.twinkl.co.uk is being used to disguise the real source of these emails. 

I don't open these but delete them from the junk folder. It is just getting tiresome having to constantly do this. 

Is there any easy way I can block them from coming to my e-mail address full stop? I am a professional punter and trader on sporting events but I do not use and have not used any online casinos whatsoever.

Almost certainly spoofed, as Twinkl.co.uk is  a valid education resource website.

Might want to drop your email in here...

If they are in the junk folder then they will be deleted automatically after a certain number of days. Just ignore them a

Thanks, Neil_Jones and Zinger549. I will report the emails.

A workaround might be to forward your emails to a Gmail account and read them from there. I've found their filters block spam emails that Outlook lets through.

Thanks, Beeblebr0x.

rules in outlook work well - what rule have you set up ?

If the text in a spam email is a photo of text, then the filters won't identify it as text, so the email will still get through

Sorry, been absent for a few days.

I tried setting up a delete rule for any email coming in as "unverified" but couldn't get it to function. 

I couldn't include a sender because I have no idea from where the email has been generated.
