i received 2 emails telling me my account will be locked in 24 hours unless i click the link to unlock it. It asks for me to log in, then all personal information I.e. ssn, then credit card information, and then asks for pictures with cards. I’m skeptical if this is real and my account is actually locked and I do need to enter all the information in. If it is real, that’s really unfortunate, because the card linked with my account is my dads who lives in another state.

It's not real.


Apple does not send threats to lock accounts. If needed, they just lock them.
