Why do I get weird email accounts assigned to me when I sign in with Apple?

My Apple ID says my email, but I just bought tickets for something with my Apple ID and it gave me a weird email. I mad a Vinted account and on there it also says a weird mail.

Don't choose "Hide My Email" when signing up for accounts on websites and apps.


If you have already done this, then log in to the website or app, and update your email address from the account settings there.


You can then delete the Hide My Email address from iCloud if you no longer need to use it.

If you use Sign-in with Apple and choose the"Hide My Email" option Apple will generate these random email addresses to protect your privacy. Email addressed to these accounts will be forwarded to your main iCloud account, but these "aliases" can be turned off or deleted at any point. The websites and apps you use "Hide My Email" will not get your real email address.
