Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

I have been getting calls from Apple saying that they advise not using apple devise until you talk to apple support. Says push 1 to talk to the support person and push 2 to hangup. Unfortunately I pushed 1 the first call.

If this is a fake call, will I have any issues for pushing 1 on the first time they called me? If there was an issue with a breach, how would I be notified?


Thank you

SCAM! Do not reply to such calls. My guess is that pushing 1 put you on the sucker list, to be called again...
