Suspicious email
Hey there,
I received this email a few days ago to my iCloud email account, which I don’t use or give out to anyone! Anyone here happens to know what is this about?
BTW I don’t live in the US...
thanks!

it's fake and it has all the markings of a scam; most notably; no mention of your given name, just your eMail. Apple will never address you this way, they will only use your give name if there was a legitimate reason to contact you. Secondly if you have two factor authentication an Apple device associated with your ID would have alerted you and presented you with a 6 digit challenge code needed to log in if someone was actually trying to.
Avoid phishing emails, fake ‘virus‘ alerts, phony support calls, and other scams. see this link:

It's a scam designed to get your personal info. Anyone can have your email address.
In a message Apple will always address you by your real name, never by your email address or Dear Customer. Also the sent-from address should be @apple.com or @itunes.com Additionally Apple does not send attachments.
