No, it is a scam, and the 5th such post that I have replied to in the past hour, so I guess there is a new crew at the spam factory.


It is a phishing attempt. Do not respond. Do not divulge any personal or financial information. You can use the address below to forward the suspect email message, as an attachment to Apple.

If you provided your Apple ID and password at the bogus site, change your password immediately.
