Pop up

Hi. I got a pop-up that looks like a system message asking me to re-enter my Apple ID in order to keep my iCloud information. Is this a request from Apple or is it a scam?

iPhone SE, iOS 16

If the popup contains a link for you to sign in, it is probably a scam. If necessary, sign out of iCloud, and back in not using the popup link.
