To free space, do I need to delete photos from my phone or from iCloud?

Hi, i got an email saying my icloud was almost full.

Will deleting quite a number of photos off my phone free up space?

Or do i have to go into icloud to delete them?

thanks

Lisa

This is a Phishing Scam:

Apple is not going to send you such a message. So, here is what to do...


A. Clear Temporary Internet Files:

B. Report this to Apple:

Do your Part: Forward this eMail to Apple using this eMail address: reportphishing@apple.com. Apple won't get back to you directly, but the more feedback they receive on this, the more they will know what is occurring, and what should be looked at.


C. Modify your Credentials:

Did you interact with this eMail in any way whatsoever(i.e. clicking links)? If not, then you are all set where you stand - there is no need to modify anything. However, if you did interact with it, then consider modifying your credentials, starting with a new password.
