How can I tell if an email from iCloud is spam?

I've never request the storage of iCLOUD, but I received a notice that i requested the storage of 20Tbyte. I guess it's a SPAM. Could you check the mail I received is a SPAM ?

Apple does not offer 20TB of iCloud storage so that alone tells me its a scam.

Max storage is 2TB.

Just delete it and ignore it.

You can verify your iCloud Storage space by following the steps here: link-> Upgrade to iCloud+ - Apple Support

Do you have the email address that the email came from?

Usually hackers will send these emails impersonating apple (although the address will look very suspicious) and the link will take you to a site that looks identical, after it’ll say something like ‘login failed’ or ‘cant connect to the server’ and actually your credentials have been stolen
