Apple Market Research

I received a survey from MarketResearch@insideapple.apple.com, and responded to it (no personal identifying information required by the survey) but now I wonder if it was legitimate. Or, have I been phished. Called Apple Support and all they said was to forward it to reportphishing@apple.com. Do I need to do something else-was this a security risk to have completed the survey?

apple survey Hey everyone, I received a mail from AppleSupport@insideapple.apple.com about a survey (because I called the assistance service during the day). But I was wondering if the mail is legitimate ? I clicked on the link which leads to a survey and a padlock appears next to the url adress of the website, which seems real. Also, the email seems well elaborated. I read some posts about this and I can't really figure out if this is a scam or not. What are your opinions ? Thank you :)

2021 iPad Entry Has anyone of you been targeted by theprizehut.com with a scam that states for a $1 shipping fee you will receive an iPad Pro with a Magic Keyboard? A text was sent to me to do a survey on the internet service I receive through Suddenlink.com and that if I answered the survey questions, they would send me this iPad Pro, etc. There was a phone number and a email address in case of any questions I might have. Of course, they are both bogus. Not only that but in small writing in a place my eyes missed was a box with a checkmark agreeing that if I didn't cancel my subscription for a fitness app, they will automatically bill me each month for $9.99. Yea, turns out this is an agreement for a fitness app. And it's a sweepstakes, not a guarantee of receiving anything. The money they drew off my debit card was to pay for shipping and I have 7 days in which to cancel this scam. Do any of you have any idea how I can get myself out of this situation especially since they've provided false contact information? If you think of anything that I can do to help myself, I will appreciate you telling me. Theresa D. 🤔 [Personal Information Edited by Moderator]

It certainly is not Apple.

Personally, I would not have responded and instead reported to reportphishing@apple.com.
