An email that I ve received

Hello Apple Team. I just received an email to my mail adress which I used as second apple id but for months I didnt even logged in. The mail was talking about a lifetime movie club subscription that I ve heard for the first time there in my life. There was a link which directed me to the locked-apple.bla bla http.com. First of all I cant cancel that subscription but I also dont see any kind of a subscription when I check appsore. I ve just send 2 photos of my ID card and credit card with my face to the apple.com link that was included in the mail. But I cant go further. What is going on here?

It is a phishing attempt. Do not respond. Do not divulge any personal or financial information. You can use the address below to forward the suspect email message, as an attachment to Apple.

reportphishing@apple.com

The link below has information to help identify fraudulent emails.

As you have already submitted personal info to the criminals, you should immediately change your password for your Apple ID. Also contact the people responsible for the issue of the cards you used for the Photo ID you submitted.

Contact the issuer of that ID card, and inform them of the fraud. They should issue a new card for you.

Ive just blocked my credid card but I also sent a photo of my ID card to them. Is this something I should concern about? What can I do to prevent any kind of problems due to that photo of my ID card?
