It's more likely phishing than malware. Phishing attempts to trick you into revealing sensitive information, usually via a web form. Malware actually installs malicious software on your computer or mobile device. Malware that installs on an Apple device is rather scarce (unless, of course, you're running Windows on a Mac).
