Scam email from "AppleID"

    I pay €.99 monthly to upgrade my iCloud storage. I get an email from Apple to confirm this around the middle of the month.

    Today I got a very similar email from "AppleID" confirming my purchase for €9.99. I didn't buy anything. There is a link I can click on to 'cancel my order'. I won't be clicking on it needless to say.

    This email I s almost identical to the one I get for iCloud storage but without my personal details and the last 4 digits of my card.

    Did anyone else get this? Am I doing the right thing by ignoring it?

    Forward the email to Apple. They will look into it
