Microsoft is rolling out automatic blocking for repeated Microsoft Forms phishing attempts to boost the product's security by stopping attackers from abusing forms and surveys to harvest sensitive data from their targets.
Microsoft Forms is a part of the Office 365 cloud-based subscription service and it is designed to enable its users to create surveys, polls, and quizzes for collecting feedback and data online.

"This feature restricts repeated offenders who are trying to phish. Microsoft Forms Team will block users who have two or more confirmed phishing forms from distributing forms and collecting responses," a new entry on the Microsoft 365 Roadmap named 'Forms Repeated Phisher Handling' says.
The new capability is currently rolling out to all environments and it will be generally available to all Microsoft Forms users this month.
