800-961-1963-iCloud Phishing Scam Site: Protect Apple ID and Password

“[Name] Your Apple iCloud ID expires today. To prevent termination confirm your details at [Web address] – iCloud Support.” … such message purports to be real and authentic sent by Apple iCloud technical support team. But this is not real – rather you should ignore it and stay away from such fake email message that has been purposefully pushed into your computer system to steal your iCloud credentials.
