Roxann,


'Subscriber Team"? "Locked checking account"? That is almost certainly a scam phishing message. Look at the tips in here:

However, if there is actually a real charge on your account (which in this case I doubt), follow the steps in here:

If you see 'apple.com/bill' on your billing statement - Apple Support
