Apple doesn't normally contact people out of the blue. So, that's pretty suspicious.


It's also very easy to spoof an address. Meaning, what the address says, and where it actually came from are two different things. Hover your mouse over the from address. A tooltip will eventually appear showing the actual sender's address. Chances are, they will not be the same.

Short answer:


If you’re interested, take the call. Don’t provide any sensitive info to the caller. Do request a means to verify the caller’s identity, and then check that before discussing or submitting anything sensitive. This won’t be the first time an Apple rep will be asked to verify their identity and veracity.



Long, technical answer:


You could show the message raw message headers, and see if the sending path started at Apple.


Here’s a description of how to evaluate headers:

Google has a tool that analyzes the mail headers:

There are a select few previous discussions of that email address, but—as mentioned above—any email address can be trivially spoofed.
