Fake email from "iCloud"

I received an email from "iCloud" this morning saying that my icloud storage was almost full and I should purchase more memory? Sounds like a huge scam to me.

Well, since there are no links in the email that I can see, and the email was informational only, with instructions on how to manage your iCloud storage via your own device Settings, I don't think you have anything to worry about. Seems like it was just a notification to let you know that you are just about maxed out on your iCloud storage.
Cheers,

    The SMTP server you are using with Wi-Fi would be the outgoing server of your internet service provider... this is likely why that's working.
    SMTP servers specific to a ISP would not work on the 3G network. You would probably need another SMTP server. One from your cell provider?

    With "Mac Mail" I was able to get email on my Nook Color.  I cannot get email from iCloud on my Nook.  Is there a solution?

    To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
    Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them.

  • HT4436 Just received an email from iCloud stating that my free upgrade was going to expire and decrease to 5, when I had been using 10+. What is this??

    I just received an email from icloud stating that my free upgrade was going to expire and it would decrease to 5 (when I have been using 10+). What is this??

    The actual amount of extra free storage varies depending on how much storage previous subscribers had.
    If you do nothing your storage will dowgrade to 5GB so you should make sure you don't have more content than this.
    If you want to continue with the increased storage by paying for it, please see
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5527
    and expand 'How do I purchase my current plan?'.

  • Received an email from iCloud telling me my storage is full ,when i go to storage

    Received an email from icloud telling me that my storage is full, when i go to storage on my iphone it tells me i have 4.4 GB available, what next???

    Does it say disabled for security reasons or just disabled? If it just says disabled, go to the iTunes billing team's support site and email off the error, include your billing address for the account and the last 4 digits of your credit card and they will fix it up within 24-48 hours.

    Most likely it is blocked on server level, you need to go to account settings and unblock everything that has word apple in it. Also just to make sure, verify that you didn't misspell your e-mail address.

    Welcome to the Apple community Pavinee Supajilt.
    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

    The message probably was sent by mistake. Ignore it, unless you have problems with the iCloud email address
