Q: appleid@id.apple.com message about credit card

I Just got an email saying that my Apple ID has been updated. Changes have been made on 7.th September "credit card". The text font looked quite weird comparing to the other emails which I've received from Apple. I hven't made any changes and I don't have any card as a payment method behind my account.

There was a link " if you need assistant" but I didn't click it. Is this some kind a scam?

Hi!,

I looked up the link's address without clicking it. It shows quite truthful address "www.apple.com/support/country" so that doesn't convince me that it's a phishing. Don't know what to do. Maybe I shouldn't do anything as what harm can it done as long as I don't have any card details in there. ( in apple account )
