Hello Wamuggians my wife received the email below & I would like to confirm whether it could be spam/malicious? She did try to download a weather app from the app store the previous night for her iPhone 4S, which she cancelled as it was taking a long time & did not seem to be behaving properly, so this may be an Apple communication related to this. Seeing as the principle is that one does not click on links from "bank" sites to verify one's details, I thought this should fall in the same category.
Many thanks in advance for your input, Cheers, Alex Begin forwarded message: > From: Glenda Novakovic <glendan...@tm.org.au> > Date: 27 November 2012 8:44:30 PM > To: Alex <aln...@highway1.com.au> > Subject: Fwd: Please verify that we have the right address for you > > > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: Apple <appl...@id.apple.com> > Date: 26 November 2012 22:00 > Subject: Please verify that we have the right address for you > To: glendan...@tm.org.au > > > > Thank you. > > You’ve taken the added security step and provided a rescue email > address.
