My iPhone 13 was hacked

Name one occasion, the date and the location where an iPhone was hacked, apart from Pegasus which was blocked and cost millions to hack.

Do not include times where users installed rubbish security apps that open users' data to the app owners or when users had their apple credentials phished. Cannot prevent user stupidity or naivety.

Details please. Now.

There is a Zenkey app for each of the carriers in the US. Sounds to me like the carriers teamed up and hired a third-party company or something. Zenkey also says it uses your device for your login to websites, that sounds akin to putting all your eggs in one basket. Definitely smells fishy.

@Kiddanno your phone wasn’t hacked, Zenkey screwed something up.

Or, Zenkey created an app for every carrier to make people think it has been approved by the carriers.

ETA: The carriers do seem to be offering it. Lots of handwaving about security.

As the Red Queen said; “I can believe 6 impossible things before breakfast”. Belief does not make something true. The FACT (not belief) is that the probability of an iPhone being hacked is vanishingly small, as long as you keep it updated to the latest version of iOS and don’t jailbreak it. The only successful iPhone incident reported over the past year was NSO Group’s Pegasus exploit. That requires a product from NSO group that costs $5 Million and up, and is only sold to government agencies. And even that was blocked by Apple last year.

Occasionally potential vulnerabilities are found by security researchers; when reported to Apple, the finder gets a bounty payment. This year already Apple paid one such researcher $120,000 for a report that resulted in 15.3.1 being released. With incentives like that there is a cottage industry of people working full time probing for vulnerabilities (not so cottage, actually; the researcher who got the bounty works for Google), so the chance of a random “black hat” hacker finding one are very small.

I have factory reset my phone and still get these messages when entering the codes, I don’t have any third party apps on my phone and I turned off any settings like call forwarding and Bluetooth and there is no SIM card installed at the moment.

I know iPhone can be hacked,

If you know that please tell the FBI, who constantly complain that THEY cannot hack iPhones, so they would be most interested in how, out of 1.8 billion iPhones, yours was hacked when no others can be.

if you don’t know what you’re talking about don’t comment!

Please take your own advice.

if you don’t know what you’re talking about don’t comment!

Prophetic words. You should stop talking.

Whoever this is, and if they truly have access to your data, they didn't hack the phone itself. They hacked into your account. This by knowing, or guessing both your Apple ID and password. Once a person knows that, they can log into your account as you and see all of the same information you do. Photos, contacts, emails, etc.

and there is no SIM card installed at the moment.

Then you have a very magical phone. Since there is no way for the phone to connect to any cell service, just how do you think anyone can remotely control it?

And what codes are you talking about?

"...if you don’t know what you’re talking about don’t comment!..."

My colleagues have dealt with that one.

I received a lot more notification emails generated by you, but they have also been dealt with.

Hello ~ A bit of advice…everything that you post here can be seen by anyone on this site. I would encourage you not to put up anymore personal information. It is not helpful to you in any way at all.

Nothing from that screenshot is out of the ordinary.
