I received an email saying my Apple ID was locked and I’m curious if that email is legit or not.
iPhone 8, iOS 13
Question marked as
Did you see that message when you signed in with your Apple ID? If not, then it is a scam.
Did you provide any potentially damaging information to anyone? If yes, you'll need to follow up, for example, with a credit card company, Apple, your bank, etc.
If you gave you Apple ID password to the scammer, then
