Locked Apple ID account

I received an email that says it is from Apple ID. Is this legit?


This Apple ID has been locked for security reasons.

It's fake. Forward it to reportphishing@apple.com as an attachment and then delete it.


If an Apple ID actually gets locked or disabled, its owner will be told when they try logging into it instead of through email.
