Some people on some forums are sharing free Office 365 student subscriptions

Question

A while ago, I reported this to one of the moderators of the Office 365 community, didn't hear anything back.

There are forums that give out free Office 365 subscriptions to people, they all belong to Chinese entities.

I have the domain, Email, password of the account.

I don't think this is ok, so I hope someone in charge see this post and personally follow up on this. but if you (Microsoft) is OK with this then it's all good.

I also agree,&nbsp;HotCakeX!&nbsp;If you have seen any posts like this on the Tech Community, please feel free to link them here so we can investigate this further and purge this type of action from the community.&nbsp;If this has happened elsewhere in the Microsoft Sphere, then following the usual reporting process is the right call.&nbsp;

Dylan_SnodgrassChrisHoardMVP&nbsp;Thanks, of course this is happening on another forum, Not Microsoft community/forum.I can provide full details about it but I'm not sure what is the "usual" reporting process of such things.

It's a rather old and big forum, run by people that have no relation with Microsoft.Nothing related to Microsoft sphere at all.
