What is iOS Account Manager?

iOS account manager can be controlled through Google workspace. I’m pretty sure it’s controlled by an administrator and if you’re the user you’re no longer you. Once you’re in there system your just a user and you have to get the admin or “account manager”to release you. It’s very difficult to find lit on this. They speak in code and they can see all your gmails get alerts if certain words are said even your location. It’s for businesses to watch every key stroke or “thought” they might have.

thats obviously not the best answer! If he didn’t install this mdm organization or business owner software where u need to be a google super admin (at least I was made one) then NO U WONT HAVE A PROFILE if someone else put it on there… and if u do it may be hard to find it hidden and make u sign into your work or school or biz email .. which may be yours with a domain name abd your real email … look I know where mine admin of my phone came from with his seedy evil narcissistic never ending ******** that’s straight jacket material …. But ONE THING LOOK IT UP AND TELL ME WHAT U FIND … I can tell ya all about it … apple won’t

Hello

I terribly sorry that you're going through this ordeal. I see that it happened to you last year and hopefully you got some answers.

I went through a similar situation (still am) and in my case, I found out that someone who had a previous access to all my devices, systems and credentials had created remote access to my systems and was accessing them via VMs (Ubuntu, Kali Linux, RedHat etc...). With a gnome installation and freedesktop.org these criminals were able to get into my routers, my computers, androids and IOS devices.

I changed my router 3 times! Even moved out my apartment! The IOS devices (I believe my iPhone), were even turned into network gateways. I will try to attach some screenshots.

I lived through these horrendous moments, seeing the DDOS attacks happening, the random password changes, the redirect to fake websites etc... but was powerless to do anything. I contacted EVERY single company (Apple, Google, ISP) even apple community to no avail.

I changed my router 3 times! Even moved out my apartment!

I finally got some answers when I installed my own VMs, learned how to dig into my machines, and was able to find the prior installations, intrusions on my systems (I'll try to add some screenshots).

P-S: Please pay attention to the Google Play Services App on your phones (mine was android) if applicable.

The adversary had installed a fake Google Play Services app on my phone, I noticed it almost 2 years after the fact. It would show as "Parallel Google Play Services". Which made 80% of the apps I downloaded (including pre-installed Google system apps) considered side-loaded. All these apps were accessed remotely and sending data to someone else. Some of them (Gboard) were even used audio recording apps and apparently were sending these recording somewhere.

It's a real nightmare.

Best of luck!

Hello,

I gave an answer earlier. I will copy/paste it here.

I'll add screenshots of a random windows XP (even stranger since Microsoft has not supported WindowsXP in over 10 years) that was connected to my router at some point. I would also see Linux computers logged in.

My own laptop would be connected with the mention "this device connected away from home network" which indicated a remote connection.

My iPhone seemed to be remotely managed (I never understood that one) and at some point, my very simple access code, just stopped working. I had to reset factory the device, and strangely enough, even after the rest, Google accounts, that are only signed on one device and one laptop, have several sessions opened on iPhones with my name, and some without my name are opened.

It's a real nightmare.

Best of luck!

Hey this is something I’ve felt with for 2 years, also captive apple popping up on my phones. Changed Apple ID got 9 new phones, lost money from compromised accounts and apple not google knows anything. I think this is something that needs to be addressed and have lawyers involved as I am for sure! Have any of you had pictures disappear from your phone? Or crazy websites showing up on your home network? I’ve had one apple support member even tell me to get a lawyer and private investigator bc it was compromised, that he could loose his job even but what he was seeing was wrong and should not happen as he was on screen share. Then another chick from apple recognizes a letter that had 3 backslashes and apple only has 2 but nothing has been done yet and I’ve even called FBI and cyber crime unit.

Why aren’t more of us getting together and stopping these freaks? It cost me a business and my home, not to Mention apple had me starting to believe I was loosing my mind. I almost took my life a year ago.

What is iOS Account Manager?

Hello there, I was checking my google account security settings and I found out that "iOS Account Manager" is connected to my account but I've no idea what it is. I tried to log out from my account on my iPhone but when I log into YouTube it still appears (so it might can be related to yt but idk why). I also logged into safari and when I check for new logins in my google account setting it just says that safari is connected. You guys have any ideas on what this account manager is? sorry for my bad english.

Same here! I have sent multiple screen recordings & snapshots of things that have happened with my phone. Tx msgs & emails being read & opened by someone else. My ex partner sent his sister & tx msg before Xmas but it came from my phone number. He was receiving every single iMessage & had my WhatsApp on his phone without me ever getting a single notification? Pictures & evidence vanishing. I had to install a lock folder on a old phone I had. Called the police bevause I believed it wasn’t him but thought someone was trying to send me round the bend, they even hacked into my tv & changed all of the picture/colour settings…… the police did nothing!! Because no money has been taken! I called cyber crime, again nothing, made to feel stupid for asking for help. Even tho me ask them was the final straw after being made to feel crazy for nearly 2 years!! I’m still waiting to hear back and it’s been 4 months. Time & mental health I will never get back but to Apple it means nothing.

I wish I didn’t need a smart phone so I could use a Nokia, but not possible in this world anymore.

Something really should be done, the amount of money we spend on Apple to get left out in the cold we we really need them is completely unfair. 🫨😔

Yes, that is exactly what would happen if you share an Apple ID with anyone else.

There are good reasons people don’t read long threads, which is why Apple Recommended and Best and Helpful posts, which appear at the top of every page in the thread, are so valuable. This thread fails on that account.

However, there’s no excuse for not reading the recommended and other posts at the top of every page.

You are, as always, kinder than I. :-)

Same extract story here!! even my tv … also went to the German authorities but… my daughter (9 yrs of age) her 6 month old MacBook was also affected by this and max os could not be updated due to lack of space, even though has just used it for home schooling purposes and had nothing stored.. my notebook from work had be replaced 3 times because it had also been infected..

had to cancel credit cards after being signed up to multiple dating site and whatsoever..

Im pretty sure to know the sicko behind this whole …

pretty sure that authorizes have been monitoring this whole case, after noticing a a huge van pulling up next to house and hearing people taking in the rear (1-2:00 am)

pretty sure it was an cyber emergency response team in a mobile it forensic lab..

called criminal police Département twice on it and was just told that there is an ongoing investigation which is not targeted at me, which is also why they could not give me any further information and would have to end the conversation.. twice….

my guess is that my devices were taken over by my landlord in 2021. in 2023 I am still having issues with my devices and waiting for some kind of some kind of action through authorities and finally being informed of exactly what the cases was about..

i need to figure this out..

almost forgot to mention. I had also had an ip address coming from a US military connected to my daughters notebook at the time and didn’t know what to make out of it… last year I found some interessting news about the specific base and it role in an international task force against dark net stuff.. my landloard also provided me with internet from a rout only he had access too and I notice that he had 4 routers from exact same make and model. I caught him sneaking into Appartement above me where router was located and after he left ally devices where opferbereitere and had be reconnected manually the network.. every thing starrest acting up and shortly after a van pulled up and parked next to building with people in back quietly talking..

this whole thing had a huge impact on my life… I got sick through all this crap..

Even if it is not a threat you should not diss someone’s concern especially a parent’s. I don’t have kids but I can understand to an extent given my mom’s concern when some unknown activity appeared on my account in the past. As we relay on technology more, the more important it is to make sure our information is safe.

No one's concerns have been disrepected. Telling someone that this thing is not something to be afraid of is simply explaining reality to them.
