Since you can never count on the email address to prove legitimacy, take a look at this Support Article to recognize phishing emails. It will be the content that will best determine the legitimacy.

I have never received an email from that address, and others are split on whether that address is used by Apple or a scam. The point is that you cannot trust any email header even if it is one used by Apple. Do not click any links from an email, call a provided number, or reply with personal information.


How you proceed will depend on the content of the email. If it claims there is a problem with your account, contact Apple directly using their official contact information.
