Can a remote administration tool attack my ipad

I had a email telling me that RAT malware had infected my IPad and a hacker is requesting to be paid in Bitcoin to avoid contacting all my contacts with upsetting messages and images. Also worryingly it knows my password I use for a lot of sites.

If it wasn’t for the fact that it got my password correct I would just ignore this.

any advise please x

It is a scam. Forward the email as an attachment to:

reportphishing@apple.com

Then delete the email.


Stop using the same password for multiple sites.

One of the sites you used has been compromised

and the miscreants got your password from there.
