Fake iCloud Email?

Hello.

I have recently received an email from iCloud. I'm not sure if it's actually from iCloud, because it doesn't sound "real" and doesn't really make sense.

Do you think this is a real, or a fake email? (Picture below).


Thank you,

This one looks real to me. If the blanked out name after "Dear" is your own name as is on file with your Apple ID, then that lends even more credence to it being real. As is the fact the email is providing instructions only doable on your iOS device, instead of offering a link to a shady website.


Do you have a 2TB iCloud storage plan you are paying for, and that would be up for renewal currently?


If so, this is probably a real email.
