  • Apple would not warn of a pending account issue, giving you a deadline to fix the issue.  
  • Apple does not include document, or PDF files to download.
  • Apple would not refer to you as Dear Customer(s), Dear Client(s), 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.
