Received suspicious email about verifying Apple ID

I have received a suspicious email (which was directed to my junk email) about the need to verify my Apple ID for security reason. Can you help to check whether these emails and website are indeed from the proper Apple team? Thanks

Those are fake. An actual Apple website won't have anything between the apple.com and third slash in its address, and an actual notification of an Apple ID being locked will appear when you try logging into it instead of through email.

Forward the message to reportphishing@apple.com as an attachment and then delete it.
