Hey does anyone know if Apple have a facility for reporting scam emails? I received some today supposedly for iTunes but the links go to an obviously fake website

That's good to know. I rarely get them about Apple but always get spoof emails about PayPal.

This was my first time getting one from iTunes but I have to say the fact that the web address that it linked to was alanCsmith.co.uk was a dead give away that it was fake. It must be a very novice scammer that uses their name :P
