Phone calls

I have been phone calls the message says all day from Apple Support with a 315 area code. Anyone else getting those calls today or any other day?

Unfortunately, it is a very common scam attempt.


Apple does not make such calls.

All such calls are scams from criminals attempting to steal your personal and financial information. The callers will often use number spoofing to pretend they are calling from a legitimate business. The correct course of action is to ignore the calls or hang up on them, repeatedly if needed.
