The message is NOT from Apple.....because Apple will never send a message like this.

This is a common scam that is trying to trick you into buying useless software, providing your credit card details, etc. or worse......providing personal details like your Apple ID and Password.

NEVER tap or click on a link in a message like this that you do not recognize.

Simply ignore the message and log onto another page and keep working.

Ignore any future messages like this.....which you will likely receive.

I just want to know if this is legitimate. I did not respond to it, i just took the screenshot and abandon the page immediately. I can't recall the website i was on.
