This form can't be distributed as it is asking for personal or sensitive information
- I think Microsoft broke something. They need to fix it asap.
We are not able to retrieve the responses to an assessment that we conducted for students. The error displayed is: "This form can't be distributed as it has been tagged for phishing."
Please help us resolve this, as we need the scores of the students urgently.
I have tried editing text fields, adding text fields etc. There were some math questions based on interest calculations which had the words 'bank' and 'account'. I have removed those words too. But the form is still locked.
Hi all, I'm Viviana Mascardi from the University of Genova and I run in the same issue as other university professors: I used Microsoft forms from my professional account to collect proposals for a project, the form included the word "code", since it's a computer science project, and required the name and email to be inserted. I tried to remove "code", should this word suggest that I'm asking for some personal code, and I removed the text requiring name and email. There are no asterisks, there are no mentions to "bank", "account", etc. Still, the form is blocked and I cannot download the students' proposals, that I must assess in the weekend.
Can anyone in Microsoft fix the issue and explain what might have triggered the wrong tag of phishing?
Thank you, Viviana
