sounds like someone is phishing to me! you were wise, not to give them your
card! I would call apple, since it might be a major scam that they don't
know about yet.

Subject: I need some assistance, I'm getting an email from Apple saying that
my account has been locked anyone else getting this and what is it?
Hello, I have a question for all of you on the VI phone list.
So I keep getting this email, and it says "your Apple online access has been
temporarily locked quote "click here to confirm it and unlock "then, it
wants my username, and password. Then it want my credit card number, which
to me seemed a little bit suspicious, so I did not go any further. And I'm
about to change my password. I would like to know if anyone can tell me if
this is a real legitimate email or not? Do I need to confirm my account with
them or is this just a hoax? Also The strangest part, was that it opens up
and IP address, instead of ID.apple.com. So I'm kind of concerned about
this.and they sort of don't know what to do with it. Just to see what would
happen to see if it would prompt me for the other message it did with the
credit card number, I did click the link and I saw where it said this
account has been suspended and nothing else. Awfully strange. I would think
that if Apple wanted to suspend my account, I couldn't download from the app
store. I just downloaded a dark room for the app store so something really
strange is going on. Sorry if there are any errors in this message, I am
dictating to my iPhone at this point and I do apologize if there are any
mess ups LOL. Thank you all for your help, I do appreciate it. Should I
maybe call Apple and conferment? Just out of wonder and again I do
appreciate all of your help. Jerry Mader
