Dodgy looking Apple email

does this email look legit? Signed in and wants my bank account details, I haven't made the purchases, and it tells me to log in if this is correct. It looks official, but won't let me click on anything at the top.

I haven't clicked on the link, but any email asking you for your bank details is most certainly bogus. Do not click on anything in the mail. If you have, run your virus scanner.

I agree.

Don't open anything like this to be safe.

I've asked for the link to be removed just in case to protect members here.

You can speak to Apple via their online chat system too or phone them and I'm sure they would verify either way.

I haven't clicked the link.

But when I get dodgy looking emails on my iphone, I click the recipients name.  Even though it may say it is from Apple, when you click the recipients name to show the email address, it does not even say @apple.com

It looked really official, saying 2014 itunes store. Then a receipt for $161.98, that most certainly isn't me. it looks like an official apple link, but wont let you click on any of the banner options at the top.

If you haven't purchased anything, why would they send you a receipt in US dollars and ask for your bank details? just delete the mail.
