Thunderbird support is not a provider of e-mail and does not send a message like this. I suspect that it is a scam.

Hi all
I want to know if someone happens to live it wrong before and how clear this upward.
My wife seems to type wrong email address for icloud, it goes back to the time she doesn't remember when. The problem starts when it update its iphone 5 to 10 ios, the "Please sign your icloud account" and it starts to get boring because it keep appearing. I'm trying to help him out to disconnect, but it tells me that finding iphone is on so I need to enter the password that she and I didn't because we did not have this email and I end up blocking her icloud account but the judgment of the warning that appears. Here, I would like to clarify things so that she could use the email just to her icloud account.
Is it possible to get out or I need to call apple support to erase this kind of problem?
Appreciated for any info or answer

Fake email received? Rescue e-mail address Apple ID
I received an email from the so-called [email protected]. He claims that I recently added my address to e-mail from Apple as a conference entitled "rescue e-mail address for...» [my] AppleID. "I don't have such a thing. Of course the one who sent the e-mail knows my apple e-mail address. Sounds like a scam to me. I did not answer. Can anyone provide information on who is doing what in regards to this email? I've attached a screenshot of the email. If I do nothing else, at least I'll have tipped him off about the PERP here. Do you have any advice for me on any action, I have to take? I posted in the community of MacBook Pro because the list of communities given did not address my question. If you can make this available to a better audience post, then do it.

I received an email saying that my iTunes and iCloud are locked and I have to enter my info to unlock. I think maybe it's a scam. They ask you to confirm your credit card. Has anyone else got this email? There are also some spelling errors and bad grammar.
It's a scam. They are trying to access your credit card information.

Locked IPhone 6 activation, with a fake email address
So my friend gave me his old iPhone 6 after it reset it on his computer. After he gave it to me, I found out that he had the lock of active activation. So I called him and provide all the information. But he doesn't remember all that, as he did a new Apple ID. What's weird, is that the ID that is related to the iPhone does not seem to be a real address. It's the email "'s***@me.com 'I don't know about you, but I've never heard or seen an email with" @me.com ", I was wondering if there is anything a tech app can do about it." Thank you.
Apple unlock that iPhone for you; You must specify either the person who owns Apple ID (if any) to remove the lock, or the original iPhone owner to take a physical Store, she and her receipt.

- but this ID is not yet verifycated by coz apple, I was wrong to type my email so verifycation apple sent a link to my email wrong
- automatically, I can't check my ID again
How to remove or fix my Apple ID on my iphone?
several times I tried in vain even I entered my password. He's still pop up on the screen every 5 seconds
Thank you for your response/suggest
Hi Benny,.
You should be able to go to ' settings > iCloud and logout at the bottom of page
It will prompt you for the password for ***@gmail.con
Try to connect with the password you created
Once outside, go to https://appleid.apple.com
Sign in again with the incorrect id ***@gmail.con
You can change the e-mail address to modify and check that it is correct
If you can't disconnect in device try settings wifi and cell phone, make sure you that you the date and time are set correctly, restart the device, reset the settings if still not resolved
Do not create a new ID with correct email, you will then end up with two IDs and real pain.
Contact Applecare if you need assistance, they can talk you through this for free.

fake email from Microsoft or real?
I need to know if a message I received is from Microsoft. It says to download an update for Microsoft Office Starter 2010 - English 'which is now available online', or it is just a scam of fake fishing?
Hello
I think that Microsoft has closed this chapter: no more Office 2010 Staer. You don't need to read the e-mail to be able to know, just by the look at the e-mail address of the sender.
Kind regards.
