i got an email from apple support claiming that my account had been accessed from another device and that my appleID would be locked until I followed the link in the email. The email look fake, spelling mistakes and weird grammar, plus the layout is odd (s o m e p a r t s a r e w r i t t e n o u t l i k e t h i s). My instinct is saying not to trust it, but I want to double check.

If you received or acted on a likely phishing message:
If you received a suspicious email, please forward it to reportphishing@apple.com. If you're on a Mac, select the email and choose Forward As Attachment from the Message menu.
If you think you might have entered personal information like a password or credit card info on a scam website, immediately change your Apple ID password.

It’s fake. Forward it to reportphishing@apple.com as an attachment and then delete it.
If an Apple ID actually gets locked or disabled, the owner will be told when they try logging into it instead of through email.

With the little data you have provided, my guess is that it is spam. Delete it.
Thanks, I didn't click on any link in the email, figured it was suspicious. I just didn't know what to do with the fake email. (The assurance that my instinct was correct is great too.)
Got an email from apple support, think it's fake, what do I do?
