I have received an email claiming to be from Apple. It says my Apple ID has been blocked for security reasons. To unblock it I need to confirm my identity which is a link that requires my Apple ID to be entered. If I don’t do this my email account will be blocked. I’m unsure if this may be a scam. There is a red circle with an A inside as the logo from the sender. Anyone else experienced this and do you know if it’s legitimate. Thanks 😃
iPhone 5s, iOS 12
