SCAM 1-800-275-**** Fake Support number
Hello Apple Family,
I received a call today from 1-800-275-**** stating that my iCloud account was compromised. A automated message stated my account was compromised and that I needed to speak with a Support specialist. I was then transferred to a line with a women who stated that someone from a foreign country was trying to make purchases with my account. She then directed me to get on Safari to update the information. But never asked me what device I was actually working on regarding this issue. When I stated to her I was working from a Windows computer she didn't know what steps to take to assist me. Thank God, I had prior knowledge working for Apple and jumped on my computer updated password and deleted any devices that were previous used with my iCloud account. I was able to complete the task in under 2 minutes. (Mission impossible) I got back on the phone and stated it was corrected and proceeded to get off the phone with her. She insisted to stay on the line and while speaking I was able to discovered that this was not Support and SCAM to hack my account. I found a similar link that stating the same thing. So please be careful out there! Hopeful that helps H A P P Y H O L I D A Y S !!!
