Hello I have received an email from " apple " with a bill for .79p for something I purchased. I have not purchased this item and there is a link to reclaim money ,
here's the catch they want your bank details !! ( I'm not that stupid ) Don't believe it's from Apple plus Apple have my card details anyway ?
Anyone else had something similar ?
Thanks Jane

I can't remember for sure, but it seems Apple may have quietly changed their phishing report preferred method of receiving the forwarded email to Forward as Attachment
