Is this email address legit?

I have send it to the phishing-address but I didn't get a reply and wanted to if anyone ever received a mail from this.
I got an e-mail from
[email protected]
and would like to know if this a legit address?
Because I did apply for job here but the e-mail looks suspicious.

This certainly does look like a legit apple-address. As was said before, all apple-addresses are [email protected] A spoofed address would be something like [email protected], for example, or like [email protected] (not saying that those are malicious addresses. Just using them as an example!!!!). The first one would not be from apple.com, but from apple-net.com, and the second one would be from a subdomain of net.com, in this case apple.net.com.
You have to be careful though if these addresses are in an HTML mail. If they are, the link "behind" themmight actually differ from what it says in the mail. You can check easily.Click on the link in the mail. That should open a new compose mail window. If it does, check the address in the To-field (if you have to by hovering your mouse on it). If that shows the same address, it is not spoofed in that way.

    My current Apple ID, for which all of my content has been downoaded (e.g., music, apps) is associated with a work email address that I will no longer have access to in the near future.  In my Apple ID account, I noticed I had two alternate emails listed, one is my .me account and the other is my .gmail account.  I use my .gmail account, and it is the primary email I use with friends and family.  I noticed both were not verified, and when I tried to, it said they were both associated with other accounts.  I was able to log into a separate Apple ID account I must have set up at tone point with my .gmail, and I changed the email address to a new one I created.  I also deleted the gmail account from any other Apple-relted account I could think of.  I am still gettgin the same error message when I try to add it to my current Apple ID: "This email address is already in use or you may already have an Apple ID associated with this email address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID."
    My concern is this: with FaceTime and now iMessage, it seems more important than ever that I am able to use my correct email address.  With iOS5 beta, I cannot enter either my .gmail or.me accounts under "You can be reached for messages at:" as I get an error stating: Unable to verify email because it is already in use."
    How can I remedy this issue and assign my .gmail account to my Apple ID?

    I just spoke with a technician at Apple.  I hsven't been able to verify because the wife has the phone.  but he said all that you need to do is:
    1) Go to Settings --> iTunes Store and login with your Apple ID and pwd
    2) Go to Settings --> iCloud and login with your Apple ID and pwd
    seems that the phone requires you to login to the store first...

    Hello, Wyseup. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Most likely this email address has been attempted to be setup as an Apple ID at some point.  You can reset your Apple ID password via the steps in the first article below.  If you do not have access to the email account, need assistance or are not receiving the password reset link, see the second article.

  • This email address is not available for use as an Apple ID

    hi
    i had two apple accounts
    and just wanted to change the primary email address for the both with each other
    when i changed the first one my old email cant be used with other account then i tried replacing my old email it doesnt replace it says
    This email address is not available for use as an Apple ID. You may already have an Apple ID associated with this address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID.
    please help me

    Yes,  I am having the same problem.  When I called apple they said that things were "tied up somehow" with another account that has a do different birthday than me.  Uuuuuhh?  So that means someone else can log in?... I have a feeling there is a big vulnerability with the three login options, just like with the current and past password retrieval. Apple had only suggested that I delete my current set up on my serviced and make a new ID and email.
    I Just got a new email and made a new Apple ID account For now. I was hoping the email would work itself out. I assumed If I could make sure everything was verified, not associated with another account, and try to get rid of the alternate id and second email option also used to sign in (seen in Apple ID management)  that could possibly be construed or mixed up with something else that it would eventually free up and become "available" again.  Unfortunately im still waiting In hopes in just needs to recognize the email isn't associated with anything.
    I have had a few major concerns with apple products lately especially with security. My iPhone 4s was hacked too. Some ******* was listening/recording and when I hooked to Internet he sent out the recorded portion that was available.  Talk about ****** up.

    Hi all,
    I tried this and it worked:
    1) Visit My Apple ID at https://appleid.apple.com/.
    2) Click the Manage your account link on the right sideof the page.
    3) Enter the account name (Apple ID) and the password you used when creating the account.
    4) Change the email address associated with your account.
    5) Send new verification email
    I also got this from apple CS for other things to try:
    Please follow these steps to access your Apple ID accountinformation:
    1) Visit My Apple ID at https://appleid.apple.com/.
    2) Click the Manage your account link on the right sideof the page.
    3) Enter the account name (Apple ID) and the password youused when creating the account.
    4) Delete any duplicate email addresses associated withyour account.
    5) Click the Save Changes button.
    If you do not have duplicate email addresses on your account, it is possible that your email address is already being used withanother Apple ID. In order to verify your email address with the current AppleID, it will need to be disassociated from your other Apple ID. You can do thatby following these steps:
    1) Visit My Apple ID at https://appleid.apple.com/.
    2) Log in with your other Apple ID and password.
    3) Select the Manage your account link.
    4) Choose Name, ID, and Email Address from the left sideof the page.
    5) Next to Primary Email Address, select Edit so that youcan change the email address associated with this Apple ID.
    6) Once you've made the desired change, select SaveChanges.
    7) Choose Sign Out from the top right of the page.
    If you would like to have the verification email resentto you, please sign into https://appleid.apple.com/with the Apple ID you want to verify, and make sure there is not a typo in yourPrimary Email Address. Select the "Edit" link to the right of your email address to make corrections and then click the "Save Changes" button.Once the typo is fixed, or if there is no typo, click the "Resend"link under your email address.
    If you still do not receive the verification email,please reply to this email with the email address that you intend to use onyour Apple ID.
    Good luck!

    I want to change my apple id but get the message "This email address is not available for use as an Apple ID. You may already have an Apple ID associated with this address.

    Hi billfromwandering,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues changing your Apple ID. It is correct that if an email address has been used previously for an Apple ID, it can not be used for a different Apple ID, as noted in this article:
    In most cases, your Apple ID is also the primary email address of your Apple ID account. You can change your Apple ID to any other email address you control, as long as it's not already in use as an Apple ID. If your email address ends with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com, it's already an Apple ID. 
    Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
    If you are certain that the email in question has never been used for an Apple ID and you are having issues contacting Apple Support regarding this issue, you may want to make sure you are going through the Apple ID support channel on the following page:
    Apple ID - Contact - Apple Support
    Regards,

  • I never had an APPLE ID with this email address and I have no idea why this is this showing to me?

    Every time I restore my iPhone from iCloud Backup, this apple id SHOWS UP  and asking password. But I never had an APPLE ID with this email address and I have no idea why this is this showing to me? Could anyone help me to remove it from my Applr ID as it seems somehow its linked to my iCloud Backup. Thank you.
    <Email Edited By Host>

    Hi Ralph,
    I have received the iPhone 5s from my carrier EE UK. I never had a second hand device as all my previous iPhones received from my carrier. Every time I restore from iCloud backup, first I enter my Apple ID and Password, then it authenticates and goes through next process and updates iCloud settings, right after initial settings then it displayes enter your password where the Apple ID is the metntioned Apple ID and in the bottom it says "Skip this to go next process" or something. I have to press that everytime to skip it, then restore my backup from iCloud and then when I'm in iPhone home it asks me for the password of that mentoned email. So everytime I change the email address to my Apple ID then enter my password that activates my iCloud services and start downloading all the apps I installed.
    Its really weird to be honest and I don't know how to remove that email address from that process and seems its there.
    N.B. When I had iPhone 4s, Apple Store did replace my iPhone 4s with a new one due to the faulty WiFi.

  • I'm unable to add the email address for iMessage, that I was using before iOS 7 to my iPhone, because it says that it is "in use by another device," but I have no other devices.  How do I resolve this so I can add this email address to my iPhone?

    Sync your iPhone to iTunes, and see if that does the trick.  Also you could try a Soft Reset with no Risk to Data.  Holding down both the Sleep button and the Home button until the Apple logo appears and then waiting for the Reset to bring you iPhone back to the lock screen.    Are you trying to add the email at Settings>Messages>Send and Receive from (2 Addresses) your iPhone number and your email address?

    You won't be able to change your rescue email address until you can answer your questions, if you don't know the password for that email account and you can't get it reset then you will need to contact Support in the country where you and your iTunes account to get the questions reset.

  • When I try to sign in to iCloud it says it needs to be verified by a different email. But no email is being sent to this email address. Why not?

    I keep trying to sign in and it keeps saying "Check your email at ***********.com for instructions to verify this account." But there is no email or message being received at this email address. I really want to use iCloud and I'm not understanding why this is not working. I'm thinking there needs to be another email sent but I am just not aware of how to send it. Please help me.

    You must have had another apple ID at some stage with its own password and it is that ID that must e the primary or rescure email address for the ID.  Go to appleid.apple.com and then to manage ID and see if you can't sort it there
