Got an email from Apple support, is it genuine?

Phishing, phishing and more phishing. If it were from Apple, wouldn't the destination of the link/address/whatever be apple.com?


And in passing, why are all these final destinations pointing to a bunch of other addresses, some even corporate? Cause the IT folks at those places are asleep at the wheel and their servers have been highjacked by the phishing miscreants for their nefarious purposes. Or worse.
