Q: Attention! SPAM Mails received to exploit Apple-ID

Hi, Users,

 

I just received a SPAM-Mail which tries to get my Apple-ID.

 

It´s been written in poor German but uses the Apple Logo and Style.

It is send via following dress info@apple.com

 

DO NOT klick on that inserted LINK and DO NOT submit your personal data.

 

Best Regards

    If you still have the email you could forward it to Apple : reportphishing@apple.com , and then delete it.

    Have you tried re-forwarding the email ?

     

    There is also a thread about it on google here, but I don't read German and the translations don't make much sense to me : https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/de.comm.software.mailserver/YcpLaIKiO6U

    Try Forwarding as Attachment as is instructed in 2nd paragraph below from > http://www.apple.com/legal/more-resources/phishing/

    ...

    Reporting Suspected Phishing Attempts

    If you receive what you believe to be a phishing email purporting to be from Apple, please send it to reportphishing@apple.com, a monitored email inbox, which does not generate individual email replies.

    Forwarding the message with complete header information provides Apple with important information. To do this in OS X Mail, select the message and choose Forward As Attachment from the Message menu. For other email applications or webmail based services, consult your provider’s support information to determine how to forward messages with complete headers.

     

    attaching it as an attached "file" should 'encapsulate' any offensive content that is indicated by your delivery error message
