Going to the link gets you to what looks like an offical Apple site
https://slgn.appl.id.com.summary-webapp.index.common-aspxwebidmsa.com/Verify.php?
Except if you look closely sing and apple are spelled wrong. On it my alarm bell went ringing when it asked for my social insurance number and credit card details... I went to the actual apple site, confirmed 2 way verification was still on and changed my password just to be sure. They got my date of birth and address though before I caught on, I'm not paranoid enough. I should know better than to click any links in email :(
Anyway be warned, don't make the same mistake.
