LEGIT EMAIL?

I received an email from Apple Distribution International Ltd, Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland saying that my iCloud has been locked for security reason and asked I verify my account otherwise my Apple account will be suspended.

So I thought it was legit and verified my account. But then I went into my Apple account and changed my Apple password. Just felt like I should. But I did this after I verified the info asked by the email.

I hope I didn't do something wrong. Worried.

Should I be?


MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

It is a scam. If there was a problem you would be notified when attempting to log in, including when logging into this forum. Also see: Recognize and avoid phishing messages, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support


You did the right thing by changing your password. Any other information you gave (e.g., credit card numbers) would also be compromised.
