Hello!


I just received this email with an attachment (See attached). I think it is a fake. Anyone else receive something of this type?


Thanks much,

David

The usual baloney. Notice the poor English and grammar. Apple will never refer to you as "customer". And while this one isn't as bad as many I've seen, they capitalized Please after a comma.


This may not sound like much for evidence, but Apple is very particular about sending out communications with proper spelling and grammar. When you see anything like this, it's a virtual certainty to be a scam.


Also, appleidapple.com is a not an Apple domain.


I'm going to request the hosts remove the image as it shows your personal email address. Not something you want visible on a public forum.
