Got a spam email in my iCloud mailbox from my same iCloud email address.

Question

Got a spam email in my iCloud mailbox from my same iCloud email address.

I just got a spam email in my iCloud mailbox from the same iCloud email address! How is this possible? I am worried my contacts might be spammed from my email and I use iCloud for professional purpose. Has my iCloud been compromised? I dont see that spam message appearing in the Sent Email.

I am just hoping my contacts wouldntnt be spammed from my email address.

Please guide on how to report this to apple and have them take a look at it?

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

Hello, Macatron prime.

Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

Here are a couple articles that I would recommend taking a look at when experiencing this issue.

Reporting junk mail

Filtering junk mail at the server level is only part of the solution. You can complement iCloud's junk-mail filtering by manually reporting messages as junk. You can do this by forwarding a message as an attachment tospam@icloud.com. Learn more about managing junk mail.
