'Apple ID is locked' authentic email or hoax?

I received an email claiming to be from Apple asking me to click on a link to verify my email address. After seeing the messages in discussion referring to the previous hoaxes I'm now paranoid about this type of email, true however it may appear ([email protected] address, etc.). Please notify. Copy of the email below:

Dear customer,

We just need to verify that this address belongs to you.

Just click on the link below and sign in with your Apple ID and password.

Check now > > >

Ask yourself why you got this email?

It is sent when someone adds or modifies a contact for an Apple ID account email address

If you don't do this, don't worry. Your email address cannot be used as a contact address for a

Apple ID without your control.

It's a scam. If you want to check your ID Apple go directly to http://appleid.apple.com . If your ID has been blocked for security reasons that you would not get an email on this subject, you would like to know when you tried to connect and will then need to contact Support. There are different variations of this type of email (and scams "you have a virus"): never to clock on a link or a telephone number in email or pop-ups in this type of follow-up. And although Apple have apple.co.uk they always send emails of apple.com - it's very easy to simulate the address 'From' on an email.
