Is this a threat being made towards my iPhone?

I’m having the exact same issue except it’s occurring now on a brand new IPHONE 15 pro max that’s a week old I’ve been through this with 6 iPhones is as many months. Countless hours talking to apple nothing shows up on the diagnostics it continues to get worse and ultimately leads to you being locked out of the phone. It seems a bit too frequent not to be intentional.

With this seventh phone affected, please consider why the outcome with this seventh phone will or even could be any different than the previous six.


If this is malicious (and there’s nothing in the thread above that indicates malicious activity), what you are reporting here involves being targeted with exploit chains worth millions of dollars each, and espionage-tier tooling. Or restricted tooling such as IMSI catchers eavesdropping connections or whatever you believe is causing whatever id happening here, for that matter.


Unfortunately, what you’re claiming here is so far outside of the realm that anybody here can assist with, you will not receive help here, or likely from anybody else short of direct and local forensic assistance, and particularly direct assistance with your security. With six previous phones somehow failed, and with various previous “countless hours” calls for support and likely also previous postings, I should think that seventh outcome would be clear.


That written, one common source of not-exploit-tooling issues is add-on security tooling.
