I just received a text from “Apple Support.” Is this a scam.

Additionally, see the section titled, How to report suspicious emails, messages, and calls …

Your question has already been answered above. Yes, of course it is a scam. The phone number listed is NOT an Apple support number.

Scam.

Looks to be identical, word for word, to one that many other Apple users have reported receiving.

I just received a text much like the one Unverified Apple Pay Usage is this a scam??

Your Apple ID (Case ID: 2*******4) has triggered a security warning. A pending $387.99 charge at "APPLE STORE – Orlando, FL" was detected via Apple Pay Pre-Authorization. Additionally, multiple unauthorized sign-in attempts and Apple Pay setup requests from unknown devices have been flagged. These actions are temporarily blocked, and the charge is under investigation.

If this activity is familiar, no action is required, and the transaction will proceed within 24 hours. If not, contact Apple Support immediately at 1-8********4 for assistance.

I also received one like this, from area code 804.

Is there some email address to which I can forward this message so that someone at Apple, or perhaps some other company,, can act on this?
