Phishing email says it’s from APPLE

How do I report a phishing email I received that says my Apple account has been locked and looks like it was sent by Apple, it it’s not?

See the following from Avoid phishing emails, fake 'virus' alerts, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support


To report a suspicious email, forward the message to Apple with complete header information. To forward the email: In macOS Mail, select the email and choose Forward As Attachment from the Message menu at the top of your computer screen. These email addresses are monitored by Apple, but you might not receive a reply to your report.
