Safari-Alert ?scam?

Link, i am having this problem on my wife's iPad.

Well done.

Apple's preferred method for reporting these kinds of things are both straightforward and obscure.

Forwarding an email to reportphishing@apple.com is the most common - but this doesn't cover your experience, methinks - but - sending a message to this address cannot hurt.

The obscure one is Apple - Legal - Contact - you will need to be methodical in your choices on this page, in particular:

• Provide the URL of the MOST likely culprit (this may NOT be the "sharing" service, the SCAMmer may be using a legit service, but if that is all you have...)
• Choose "Counterfeit & Knockoff Products" from the 'I have a question about:' MENU
• Check the box "I have additional documents or photos to provide"
• Choose "Internet Services" from the "Which Apple product is the most similar..." MENU

Again, good job.

ÇÇÇ

Good eye and judgement if you did nothing but ignore it and post about it here.

You could do further good deeds by copy/pasting your post into an email + the WEBSITE you were visiting when this happened to reportphishing@apple.com - AND - going here > http://www.apple.com/legal/contact/ < and reporting it as a "Counterfeit & Knockoff Products" - fill in all you can - especially the WEBSITE you were visiting when this happened.

Do not call them. Its fraud! They currently being investigated. All you need to do quit safari and hold option while open safari and choose not open recent window. Fixed!

did you get your money back? what did you do on your PC , did you reinstall everything. need help. had same experience .

Can one ever enable JavaScript again?

Certainly.

Should you be weary about bank info and credit card info after you turn it back on?

No. There is really nothing else to worry about.

I have the same problem on my iPad. I do I fix it. Thanks
