I can't tell if it is or not, I haven't used that account on a Apple product in 2/3 years.

 

Anyone know?

Uhhhh

What do you think?

 

I think no. Because this is the most not legit email address ever.. Why would their email not be Something@Apple.com...

The email address is AppleStore.iCloud@sahivalue.com, so I'd say no.

Thought so, seemed like a odd scam email to send out though.

 

That email address is my old one, I just use it for websites that send out spam mostly but a few things are still linked to it like my old apple account

Just to add something to this, even if the email address seems to be legit it might sill be a scam , a few months ago I received an email that said that I needed to send some info through fax to Amazon because my account was being reviewed, the email was from account-confirmation@Amazonic.com, it didn't have links or anything, just to send personal information through fax, so not all scams involve links... or phone calls... or ancient technology like faxes... do people still use those things?
