I am receiving repeated unwanted OneDrive shares without email notifications and I have no option to block the sender. Please help escalate this issue

Im getting upwards of 60 unwanted OneDrive file shares per day, the shared files are going straight to my junk folder but I have no way to prevent them from going to my OneDrive.

I want to be able to block all files shared in outlook from going to OneDrive unless I allow it.

update-

This clearly shows a vulnerability with OneDrive the Microsoft must address as the files being shared are porn ., bitcoin scams and Csam and I have now contacted the police Microsoft needs to figure a way to prevent all outlook shares from going to OneDrive, a “only share from contacts” or no share to OneDrive option as overnight I’ve had 2Gbs of shares over 100 files and I cannot report them as it flags an error I can only remove the share which is unacceptable when Microsoft allows these functions in office business

    Hello. Microsoft does not offer a way to block all incoming shares. You can remove items from “Shared with me,” mark emails as junk, block senders, or report abuse for persistent shares. Shared files automatically appear in OneDrive if sent to you.
