There's no way this is from Apple. I'm just sharing to inform everyone else. I didn't click on the link. If you get this, delete it!

Thanks for the heads up and I have been very cautious lately and even with all the spam and junk mail filters, stuff like that seems to get through the cracks.

I have a strict email policy I live by, if I don’t know or haven’t seen the senders email address, I simply delete it and I never open any attachments under any circumstances.

I never pay attention to those emails, even if they somehow have succeeded to bypass spam filters.

When I’m in doubt, I tap the sender and see what email address it’s sent from.
In all cases this will be a gibberish email address.

I havent seen anything yet myself, but we will see. GMail, at least for me, seems to be pretty good at filtering such kinds of emails out before they even get to my device.
