So are you saying the original email genuinely was from Apple? If so do you have any idea how the scammers got all that info? And did you ever receive the legitimate call back from Apple?
I’m just speculating but maybe they (scammers) filled out a fraudulent activity form on the Apple site on behalf of the victim and then called before an Apple rep did.

Wouldn’t they still need to know the username and telephone number then? That seems like something most people would be unable to link.
