Phishing refers to fraudulent attempts to get personal information from you, usually by email. But scammers use any means they can to trick you into sharing information or giving them money, including: 

  • Fraudulent emails and other messages that look like they're from legitimate companies, including Apple
  • Misleading pop-ups and ads that say your device has a security problem 
  • Scam phone calls or voicemails that impersonate Apple Support
  • Fake promotions that offer free products and prizes
  • Unwanted Calendar invitations and subscriptions
