Have you ever received an email from Apple saying they have problems with crediting your account and you should check it, and you do (but not thru a link provided by the email that does not provide any) and when you do check everything is fine? So, it looks like phishing, but it is not, but there is no problem either. I am at a lost.

Hey albatros11,


It sounds like you have a concern with a message that might be phishing.


If you checked your account through the official link and not the email, which it sounds like you did, and there were nothing about account issues, the email was most likely phishing. This resource can help with determining phishing emails, and there's steps you can take to report the email as well:  Recognize and avoid phishing messages, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support.


Have a great day!
