Q: fraudulent invoice

Just a guess, but:

You can use the address below to forward the suspect email message, as an attachment to Apple.

reportphishing@apple.com

You are welcome.

I too received a fraudulent invoice. What is the purpose of these mails. What do I need to be careful of

If you blindly click the link to check on the supposed purchase you probably confirm that your email address is active. The next step is likely to be clone of one of Apple's pages where you will be invited to enter both the email address and password for your Apple ID. If you do that then the fraudsters can then purchase items on your credit in a way that allows them to make money though I don't know the exact details of how this is done.

Thanks, this makes sense . I need to watch out for mails from supposedly Apple asking for password etc.

You're welcome.

They are generally things like an invoice for a purchase you haven't made or a warning that your account will be locked if you

don't confirm your details within say 24 hours. The email probably won't ask for a password, that would happen at the website you go to if you click on links in the message.
