Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I received this email from so called Apple telling me that there have been attempts to login to my Apple ID. I did not trust this because, when I clicked on the link attached, it directed me to a weird page what looked like apple but I don’t think that it was the original page. Has anyone else received such a mail?
