noreply@insideicloud.icloud.com a scam address?

I received an email from iCloud [noreply@insideicloud.icloud.com] with the message that's quoted below. Is this a phishing email? It goes against what I remember about the storage upgrade being free

As a thank you for being a former MobileMe member, you received a 20 GB complimentary storage upgrade when you moved to iCloud. Your upgrade expires on September 30, 2013.

When it expires, your iCloud storage will be automatically adjusted to the free 5 GB plan. Note that you are currently using 6.57 GB of storage. If you exceed your storage plan on September 30, 2013, iCloud Backup, Documents in the Cloud, and iCloud Mail will temporarily stop working.

To continue using these iCloud features without interruption, reduce the amount of iCloud storage you are using or purchase a storage plan by September 30, 2013.

For more information, see this article.

Hi Peter !

Many are checking out the Email Address and are being Vigilant and Wise in checking first before continuing.

It amazes me how people can call others Paranoid, when all you are doing in this Electronic Identity Theft Age, is keeping "Safe".

I am here checking out the address and many others Googling it too and checking on here too.

Remain Vigilant and Safe always, just as I do and it "Pays".

If ever unsure, just do what you keep doing and that is what you have done here.

It is usually the ones that "Think" they have it all worked out and make judgements towards others doing "Right", that they actually end up falling Victim.

This is just to encourage you for doing the right thing and supporting you in letting you know "You are Not being Paranoid.

Kind regards,
