email threatening to delete my iCloud. Scam?
I've just had a very curious email from 'support@apple-emails.eu' threatening to delete my iCloud account if i don't verify it within 48 hours. But it says it will be cancelled, today, 23 February. They have sent no previous such warnings. No one has ever asked me to update my iCloud ID details.
Everything on my computer, and my online Apple ID account, suggests that nothing has changed, all is in order and verified. There is nothing for me to change or verify. All the boxes are ticked.
I assume this is a very dangerous piece of spam.
Here's a copy of the email, with the dangerous? links removed:
Apple/iCloud ID

To cancel the deletion of your iCloud ID proceed to continue to your Apple ID profile page before the deadline.
