Q: I think I may have received a spoof email
Hi,
I received the following email today and I have the feeling it may be a spoof email as I do not recognise the device mentioned and I also use two step verification so would have been alrerted about the purchase.....how can I check that this is truly fake?
I must say if this a spoof email it would be the only one what has nearly caught me out!!
thanks,
Del

It's fake. A lot of people have received this or variants, including me. If you examine the 'From' address for the actual address (hover over the link or if necessary control-click it) you will see it's not an Apple address. Furthermore it's claimed to belong to 'Megan's iPod' and the amount of money involved is not the cost of an Apple Music subscription. Bin it.
