Phishing email - opened pdf and clicked on link

I just received the attached email which I consider as phishing email but unfotunately I just realized it as such when I clicked on the link in the attachment on my iphone which led to an online form which looks almost identical as the one from apple.
Luckily I was suspicious then. Do I have to be afraid of any virus infection already because of opening the pdf and clicking on the link. I did not enter user ID and an PW and of course I already changed my password on the real apple website. Thank you very much for a quick information.

No, such scams rely on the user inputting their personal/financial information at the bogus web site.
