Hi,
I received a SMS message which I knew was a phishing attempt. But I accidentally clicked on the link. It took me to an unsecured website which didn’t open.
however, when I opened my IKEA app today it said “Warning! It is not recommend to use this app on a jailbroken device”
have I been hacked? I didn’t think this was possible? What can I do?
iPhone 11

Had you updated to iOS 14 before using the Ikea app?
Changes in iOS 14 seemed to have triggered this message in many apps.

I have had the same happen to me today! I rang up Apple and the first person spoke to me and said “ uh um there’s nothing we can do” when you buy something from Apple you expect the warranty to be up to standards! Second person basically said reset all passwords, helpful not. My friend downloaded the app and nothing came up on hers. Have you found out whether or not it’s a scam or not?
It’s not a scam. It’s a bug in some apps that only affects phones on iOS 14. Go to the App Store, tap on your icon in the upper right, and make sure the app has been updated. It may have been fixed, which would explain why it worked for your friend. Or perhaps your friend wasn’t running iOS 14.
The jailbroken message seems to pop up on Apps that have not been updated to work with iOS 14. It certainly is not an appropriate message, but it keeps popping up.
iPhone hacked with jailbreak???
