Email fraud

Hello, I just received an email, from:

APP Store, but when I copy the sender this is what their email is:

****@ ****.godtopson.com


subject:

Re : [Proof Of Payment] - Your recent purchase membership " Netflix Premium " on the App Store - Date: Sunday, 09 February 2020 07:10:30 #PDF [PO7899-6781]


is this a fraudulent email trying to act as it came from Apple?

  • 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.
