  • Create a strong password for your Apple ID, It is best if your password consists of eight or more characters and include upper and lowercase letters, and at least one number. You can also add extra characters and punctuation marks to make your password even stronger. 
  • Never provide your password, passcode, security questions, verification codes, recovery key or any other account security details to anyone else. Apple will never ask you for this information.

Are they?


Or are you getting phishing messages pretending to be access attempts?


Those phishing messages usually want the target (you) to log into the provided “Apple login webpage” using the embedded links, so the target can then provide their Apple ID credentials to the scammers.


What are the particular login-related symptoms you are encountering?
