iPhone user was scammed by the so-called Apple Support!

When an American woman who bought an iPhone 13 wanted technical support, she was scammed by the so-called Apple Support service. The new iPhone user, who accidentally locked his phone and couldn’t turn it on, called an Apple Support number he found on the internet to fix the problem. The people on the other end of the number, who later turned out to be a fraud, repeatedly withdrew money from the woman’s account. So, how to tell the real Apple Support and what are the details of the news? Let’s take a look together.

$1,500 was withdrawn from the iPhone user’s account!

Three times in a row, money was withdrawn from the account of the woman who called the Apple Support number she found on the Internet. The iPhone user, who realized that the number he called Apple Support was actually fraudulent, was defrauded for a total of 1500 dollars. A woman named Cookie Pridemore explained that she didn’t realize that the numbers that appeared to be a company hotline were actually mostly scams.

Apple Support’s official site has many criteria to understand whether an address is real or not. According to the company, in order to understand whether a place is real or fake, it is necessary to look at the typos first. Texts with typos are usually contact addresses prepared by fraudsters. Apple says they should be compared with previous ones, as suspicious-looking emails are received to distinguish them from fake addresses.

The company wants users to forward it to them after they come across such an e-mail or any contact address. The company also says that when you receive a call stating that they are Apple Support, you should hang up immediately. More details about fraud and forgery are available on Apple Support’s official website.
