Weird verification email

I recently recieved an (cheap looking) email from Apple via kudenserver.de about my apple id and its supposed problem. first of all, the email didn't make much sense gramatically so it just made me confused.
it was talking about how i shared information with another apple id with a problem(?), but i have never done that, and don't know how. the email said that I had 14 days starting from the 25th of july to verify my account, or my apple id would be restricted. Here are the exact words:
Your Apple account sharing information with at least one other account
Apple with problems. Please solve problems in a
within 14 days or we will be forced to restrict your account.
So anyway, I clicked on the link to verify my apple id again, because apparently, that's all i needed to do to help. It took me to what looked like the apple site but the web address started with http://www.roshangari.ir/ and asked for me to enter in my apple id, credit card security number and password. The really weird thing is that i have never, ever, ever used a credit card to pay for things from the app store or itunes etc, I don't even own a credit card!!
ok as i am writing this i get more and more of a feeling that this email is a fraud or something to get my 'credit card' details. im still kind of worried becuase i really would not like for my account to be restricted.
I would just like some sort of opinions about this weird email and whether or not i should be concerned about it and call up the apple staff or something

Well....I used network utility to run a traceroute and subsequent whois on the IP address....see below. Without doing any other research, and based on the improper grammer of the original email, I would say this is sketchy at the very least and contact Apple regarding its validity.

Verification Email received but Verification Code was missing?

Hello,
I tried to login to my Best Buy account and noticed they wanted to verify my account by email. I received the verification email but the temporary code was blank.
Anyone else have this issue?
Thanks,
Marty

Hi Marty-
That’s definitely weird that when you received that verification email, the temporary code was blank. I’m sure that was the last thing that you expected to have happen.
As we continue to work to improve the security on BestBuy.com, we have sent out verification emails to customers. However, I can’t say that I’ve heard of a situation like this. How long was it between when you received the email and when you looked at it? Also, were you able to get access to your BestBuy.com account or do you still need help with that? If you do, please feel free to send me a Private Message with your full name and the email address you use to sign into BestBuy.com and I’ll be happy to see what I can do.
You can send me a Private Message by logging into the forum and clicking on the button across from my name on this post.
Thanks!

How can I delete my iCloud account when it is sending a verification email to an address which is no longer accessible?

I recently changed my old iTunes User id from an old, defunct, and inaccessible email address to a new and active one. To do this I went to iTunes 'Manage your Account'. At the same time, I changed my password, and this has been working fine.
However, I now need to change my iCloud account, so I read up on it and saw that I needed to delete my old iCloud account and set up a new one with the new iTunes user id. When I tried to delete the iCloud account, it sent a verification email to the old, defunct email address, and will not allow me to go any further until I confirm the verification.
The problem is of course that I can't access the old email address to confirm the verification that iCloud has sent to it.
Solutions already tried:
Go into iTunes and 'Manage my account' - this doesn't work as there is no option to manage the iCloud account here, only the iTunes account
Reset the iTunes account to the old email address - this doesn't work, as it still sends a verification to the old email address, and I can't access it to confirm
Contacting Apple by email - tried this but they didn't seem to have a clue what I was talking about!
Does anyone out there have any bright ideas? All welcome!

Use "Manage your Account" to change the primary email address.

Wrong email for new ID verification email, how can I log in to change the wrong email?

Just changed my Apple ID but after I was done I realized the email I used as my ID is wrong. Now when I try to sign into iTunes I am being asked to verify the new ID using the verification email sent to the new email, problem being that that new email is wrong and I can't access it. How can I log back into my account to change that email? Help please.

Did you get an answer to this? i have a new email and I can't verify the old one as it is blocked so can't log into it. Any help will be appreciated.... thanks

I'm downloading adobe software via my dad's account and when it's done loading, it has a message where it says it sent a verification email to my email address, but when I check it shows that it hasn't been set. I keep clicking the resend email and it claims it does but it still hasn't sent the email to my address. How do I fix this?

It is probabl,y sending the email to your Dad's email address if you are using his account.

HT5622 My new iTunes account keeps telling me that my account is not yet verified. But when I click on a verification email in the verification email I receive, it says that my new apple id _has_ already been verified. I'm so confused.

My new iTunes account that I created for work keeps telling me that my email address is not yet verified. So I send a verification email to my main (another) email address, and then when I get a verification email to that address, it says that my email address is already verified.

You can resend the verification email by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address.

I have not got a verification email for my password for the apple id that i created over two weeks ago. i have tried resetting my password and resending the email but nothing comes though and i can not buy anything on itunes.

i have an apple account, but i created a new one because none of the passwords i use worked on it (i hadnt been on in a while)
so i set up another account with the same email and a new password on January 27. i have chevcked my emails every day since then and my junk email folder and there is nothing there to help me!
i cant log on to or use my itunes at all because it tells me that i havent verified my password and every time i click resend verification email and nothing comes to my email.
i dont know what to do now, i have just tried to reset my password online and it said that it worked, but when i go on itunes there is still nothing working...
any help would be appreciated!

The very similar situation with mine:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3492726
I can't find any solution. I don't even remember when I changed my apple ID! So does that means I cant recovered my purchased apps from my " old" account? I am totally innocent, for I did not intend to "Change" my account name

Security question verification email is set to a different email than my apple ID

Oddly enough, the Itunes store will not let me purchase new msuic without verifying my account now, even though I made a purchase on this computer about a week ago. It wants me to verify via my billing information and security questions. However, I can only remember one of my secert questions, and when I attempt to reset my security questions via email, it appears that the verification email is sent to the wrong address - not to my apple ID email. The email is sent to a .au email instead of my .com one. Just to be clear, I do not own or have access to the .au email address.
Can someone point me in the right direction to have this problem resolved?
Thank you for your time.
Justin.

The reset link will show the rescue email address that you have on your iTunes account - it can't be the same as your primary email address (not alternate email addresses), so it will be different.
You won't be able to change the address until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps on this page to change your rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620
Or, if it's available in your country, you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

I updated to iOS 8 on iPhone 5s and now iMessage will not verify my email. It has said "Verifyng" since yesterday, but has not sent a verification email. I checked my iCloud settings for that email address and it shows "pending".

I updated to iOS 8 on iPhone 5s and now iMessage will not verify my email address to use to send/ receive messages. It has said "Verifyng" beside it in settings since yesterday, but has not sent a verification email. I have also tried Adding it as a new email address several times, but get the same outcome. I can still send/ receive texts from my phone number, just not from the email address.
In my iCloud settings under Contact Information for that email address and it shows "pending". When I select "Resend Verification Email" I get "Cannot Connect to iCloud".

I upgraded my wife's iMac to Mountain Lion. When I try to set up her cloud connection to sync with her iPad and iPhone, it says it is sending a verification email, but it never arrives. Any way around this. Her phone and iPad seem to already be in sync .

When I try to set up my wife's Cloud account after upgrading to Mountain Lion, I click on the "send verification email" box, but the email never arrives. Her iPad and iPhone already seem to sync up in the Cloud, but no storage is being used. Any suggestions on how to get the account on her iMac?

Hi sddmd,
And you have checked her Junk mail folder?

How can i change my verification email address

i used a foney email address but i didn't know it would have me verify it so how can i change the verification email address to send to a active email address. And i tried making a yahoo account for the foney email i used but yahoo says that email is not valid so any other ideas. please reply back really need help

You should be able to log into the account via the 'manage your apple id' button on http://appleid.apple.com and put a proper primary email address on the account ; or you can do it by logging into the account via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes.

I cannot verify my icloud account because I have no verification email. Any ideas Apple customers - as Apple can't be bothered to assist?

I have an Apple 2 with IOS 6.
Because I have this I have Apple icloud. I have an Apple ID, I have an Apple password. They work. But I can't verify my Apple icloud account because the software has not sent me a verification email! I only have one email account and one Apple ID. There is NOT (contrary to Apple trouble shooting pages) any way to get this email sent again!
So I can't get the icloud verified.
It seems incredible that I can get no help from the manufacturer or retailer here and instead have to resort to asking members of the same neglected bunch of Apple 'customers' for help but if any of you can I'd appreciate it. In the meantime, note to self 'NEVER buy Apple again. They treat their customers with disdane.

i just went thru this hassle in the past hour..luckily that's all it took me to get it set eventually. i read some of the comments here to get ideas (i even considered creating a new account, as "comcast" had suggested). honestly, i'm not even sure what i did exactly to make it work. i logged in to my itunes account and i was notified that i had to re-confirm my apple ID. it was then showing in the "email" field and i had to re-typed it in the "apple ID" field. then i put this info in my iphone (setting -> emails), i clicked again "resend verification" and this time it showed "verification was sent to '[email protected]'" (on my previous attempts, it showed "verification was sent to [.]" or something. not sure if u came accross it). so it's thru itunes. try to sign out and in, then go to your account setting there and make sure the email/apple ID are updated. by the way, i never really got the actual verification email. as soon as it showed the message - the app was automatically enabled on my iphone.
hope this helps!

I'm trying to set up a iTunes allowance account for my 11 year old daughter, I set up the account but put in the wrong email address, now it's trying to send the verification email to an old addy I no longer have access to. Help.

I'm trying to set up a iTunes allowance account for my 11 year old daughter, I set up the account but put in the wrong email address, now it's trying to send the verification email to an old addy I no longer have access to. Help.
I've tried looking at my own itunes account but I cannot seem to find the allowance account, it says I currently have zero allowance accounts.
All I want to do is change the assigned email address.

Who is the email provider? Not all accounts can be set up as POP3

I have entered a wrong email while creating my apple ID and I dicovered that after it sent the verification email, and I filled my credit card info, what should I do ?

whille creating my apple id account I entered a wrong email and didnt notice till the verification email was sent.
so i just made a new apple ID with my correct email, but now i am worried about the other wrong one, cuz it got my credit card info.

Don't worry about it, you'll be OK.

When setting up my apple I'd I get a verification email but there does not seen to be a link to click on there is a link that says "verify now" but it's not a link the only other thing on the page is a link to apple thats starts the process all over again.does anyone have a solution for this problem?

The idea to jumpstart by change was not the smartest one, but gives you an opportunity to use that "temporary" account as permanent. You do not have a choice cause obviously despite you thinking that old account is no more -it does exist on Apple servers. And if you are unwilling to share your [email protected] with friend, just create one extra [email protected] for your friend. One suggestion - do not use gmail.
