iCloud account Mail alert! Scammer alert!

Have anyone received an email from this address: aminglok46@sgfdfby.com. With the subject: [12] Unauthorized access has been confirmed please review your account now !. The message was: Your Apple ID Account was sign in to iCloud with other devices, Please check the PDF for the details ! !.


I clicked the link on the pdf but good thing the system asked me if i want to continue. Due to panicking, i almost clicked it but realized to double check the email address of the one sent it. True enough it was not from Apple Support. I almost been victimized.

There is a lot of this sort of thing and variations of it. The first giveaway is that real emails from Apple address you by name, not 'Dear Customer' or similar or your email adress.
