Q: phishing scam id-imessage.com

I have a user who received the following text. I'm pretty sure this is a scam but its a doozy.

Dear xxxxx,

Your Apple ID (xxx@xxxx.com) was signed in iMessage on Dan 's iPhone.
Device: iPhone 5c

IP address:xx.xxx.xxx.xx

OS: iOS 8.2

If you believe an unauthorized person accessed your account, please sign in and manage your account immediately by going to http://id-imessage.com/info/us/page?token=xxxxxx

 

Thanks

Apple Support

 

The url and link will redirect to what looks almost identical to the itunes login page but the secure cert is not available. I removed the actual token id in this message. If you go to any other portion of the url it will redirect to the legit apple site. I found nothing reported about this so its probably yet another hacked site or redirect phishing scam.
