Apple Email

I recently received a weird email supposedly from Apple saying my account was locked due to sucpisocous activity. I can’t find an email to send apple to make sure this is them. I’ve gotten a email few months back like this and the email looked weird but I changed my password then. This one looks more legit. But I wanted to email them to be sure. So where can I email them. I tried to the time before but I never got a response.

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 11

  • Apple does not send such messages. 
  • Apple would not warn of a pending account issue, giving you a deadline to fix the issue. 
  • Apple does not include document, or PDF files to download.
  • Apple would not refer to you as Dear Customer, Dear Client, or anything other than the name on file for your account.
  • Apple would not have such horrible spelling or grammar. 
  • Apple would not send a message to “Undisclosed Recipients”. 


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.
