I got a message that someone used my apple pay.

Hello.

I received a message from the apple store that someone paid using the apple pay. However, there was no purchase in the apple pay usage history. I was asked to call, but the call was not made. Please confirm that this is real or fraud.

Below is the message content.


Apple Approval Notice


We have noticed that your Apple iCloud id was recently used at "APPLE STORE - CA" for $143.95, paid by Apple Pay Pre Authorization. Also some suspicious sign in request and apple pay activation request detected. That looks like suspicious to us. In order to maintain the security and privacy of your account we have placed those request on hold. Your Photos, Data, Bank Information and Cards are at risk. If NOT you? talk to an Apple Representative. Failing may lead to auto debit and charge will not be reversed. Call +1 80********9 immediately to cancel this charge.

That’s a scammer attempting to get your personal and financial information. Do not click on anything. Delete the text and mark as junk.


If you ever have questions call 1-800-MY-APPLE before doing anything else.
