"Email already in use" Apple ID error message. How can I set it up?

A little over month ago I received an email from the Russian Apple website, asking me to confirm my email to complete the registration of my Apple ID. I am thinking someone possibly used my email by mistake. I did not click the authentication link. The message stated that if it wasn't me who registered, I shouldn't worry. However, now I am trying to create an Apple ID but I get the error message: > "Email already in use" I have never registered for an Apple ID with my email address. Resetting the password through email authentication does not send me any email. What can I do?
