I receive the following email, checking to find out if it a scam? , Your account Apple ID has been access from another devices. Fo902TRASRmIr0nr securGbX3Ao4remAywity reWC2nEBnGfFR7gasEQYFDorls2Zxton, wEj4CfbOhOctBte haYRLg8Z

Please let me know is this a scam. When I clicked the verification button a Google search page came up!

also I didn’t trust the spelling in the email,


thanks

Apple will always address you by your name or the name they have on file for you, not Dear Customer, Dear Client or by using your e-mail address.  The e-mail will be from @apple.com or @iTunes.com. E-mail addresses can be spoofed. You can go to Mail/View/Message/Show all Headers to see more. Apple emails won't have poor grammar/misspellings. Apple e-mails will never contain an attachment. Apple will never request personal information by email such as Social Security numbers, your Mother’s maiden name or full credit card numbers . 


The only exception to the above I have noticed is if you order something from the Apple Store (apple.com), your receipt will be addressed to Dear Apple Customer. That is a receipt for a purchase you initiated.
