My iphone12 has been hacked by someone I know. What should I do?

My iphone12 has been hacked by someone I know. He has taken over all of my email accounts-other accounts as well. The police will not do anything. What should I do??

If your suspicions are based on hard evidence, contact your lawyer and ask him for advice.


As for your iPhone, I suggest that you, as soon as possible, proceed to:

  • Change your Apple ID password, as per these instructions: -> Change your Apple ID password - Apple Support
  • Delete your email accounts from the Apple Mail app, change their password (for each of them) using a computer connected to your email provider, restart your iPhone, re-add these email accounts by entering them with the changed password(s).
