I think it’s spam: select this option if the message is unsolicited marketing or propaganda and there does not appear to be a malicious link or attachment. We will review these reports routinely and action remediation as necessary.
I think it’s malicious and/or phishing: select this option if the message appears as though there is malicious intent, contains warnings of negative consequences if you don’t click on included links or open attachments immediately, or contains any other indications that it was sent from a potential attacker. We will mobilize our cyber security team to investigate immediately to minimize any damage that could occur from the potential attack.
