Hi!I just got an email that looks like its from Apple and says that i should update my personal information or they will close my account soon.But there were a lot of typos and that didint look legit.And there is absoulutely no need to update anything on my account.So probably a scam?
iPhone SE, iOS 12
Yes, you're right, it's a scam.
You can forward it to Apple, read here: Avoid phishing emails, fake 'virus' alerts, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support

Apple won't send you an email/text telling you your account is disabled/restricted or will be disabled/restricted. You will find out the next time you try to log in somewhere.
Apple will always address you by your name or the name they have on file for you, not Dear Customer, Dear Client or by using your e-mail address. The e-mail will be from @apple.com or @iTunes.com. E-mail addresses can be spoofed. You can go to Mail/View/Message/Show all Headers to see more. Apple e-mails will never contain an attachment. Apple will never request personal information by email such as Social Security numbers, your Mother’s maiden name or full credit card numbers .
The only exception to the above I have noticed is if you order something from the Apple Store (apple.com), your receipt will be addressed to Dear Apple Customer. That is a receipt for a purchase you initiated.
Dodgy email from Apple
