I received an email stating my Apple ID was used to buy some subscription on OkCupid. I got panicked and clicked on the PDF and links mentioned in it through my iphone. It tired opening up new tabs on chrome, but only the homepage came up each time. I haven’t provided any details anywhere. What should I do to ensure i am still secured. Also, can someone deploy a malware on Iphones

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 13

As long as you did not put any information in on the scam website, you are fine.

Delete the email, close the website.

Apple will never send you any attachments in billing emails.

Apple will use your name in the body of any email.

Never click on links or attachments in emails.
