Valid email from Apple

How do I know if the email from support @apple.com is valid? The email says my account is blocked because of unauthorized login attempts. It wants me to verify my information with my name and credit card number, my social security number and date of birth. I’m afraid this is a scam. I have been getting emails from apple that I think are scams

iPad Pro, iOS 12
