Your phone was not hacked. You received a scam message that was trying to trick you into clicking on a link to buy useless software or worse.....provide personal information.


This is a well known scam.


Ignore the message and keep working.

You do not have a virus and your phone has not been hacked. There are also no virus scanners tools that will have any effect on your iPhone. That does not mean that a company will not take your money with claims that they are protecting your phone, but it does mean that there is no virus scanner that can scan your phone or offer any protection.

Why is everybody so insistent that my phone was not hacked? I don't understand. I have proof I can send screenshots. I know that they have stolen information and have even falsified a lot of the Apple screens on the iOS. I am on iOS version 17.6 and iPhone 13 and I know for a fact I can show you proof. The phone definitely has been hacked using a technology called WebRTC, and this particular application is used for during FaceTime WhatsApp and many of the other social media software are using WebRTC and there are KNOWN loopholes inside of this software
