Beware of this! Do not click anywhere on it if you are sent this e-mail! Who knows what it might do?

Did you hover to see if any links are real?
I got some spam yesterday with several links to my Apple ID. They were all normal email links. Of course, there was at least one URL that was mislabeled.

Indeed. I didn't see that at first.
