Email scam

I received an email saying someone had tried to log in with my apple account and that I needed to verify my account or it would be permanently blocked. The I followed the link and it led to a page that eventually needs my banking details including my card pin. Is this legit ?

No, it's not legit.


Apple would always address you by name


And you should never give out any banking or personal data based on a link in an email
