If you’re added to a group chat by someone using Teams for personal use, you’ll be prompted to check if the group chat is safe to join. It’s a quick step to protect yourself against spam or phishing attempts.

Participate in the group chat

  1. Select Chat to open the chat list.

  2. Select the group chat, and then select OK.

Preview messages before you participate

To avoid spam or phishing attempts, preview the messages in the group chat before you participate.

  1. Select Chat to open the chat list.

  2. Select the group chat, and then select Preview messages.

  3. Choose OK or Delete chat.

Delete the group chat

  1. Select Chat to open the chat list.

  2. Select the group chat, and then select Delete chat.

  • Once you've selected Delete chat, the chat will be permanently removed from your chat list and conversation history will be deleted. When this happens, you won't be able to search for messages that were part of the deleted chat thread.

  • When you delete the group chat, you’ll see the option to block the person who added you to it. When you block someone, you won’t receive one-on-one chats or group chat invites from them in Teams. They also won’t see your status.
