HI, I was unfortunately fooled by an email from a "friend" and opened the following link http://assessoriadeimprensanabahia.com/overcome.php?largest=9cked67vn6
I have googled the link but all the information I could find was in Portuguese. I am now concerned that by following the link I have allowed phishing malware or the like on my iPad mini. How will I be able to find out and what can I do about it if that is he case? Any info or help would be greatly appreciate.
iPad Mini, iOS 8.3
There is no Malware on your device unless you jailbroke it.
TThanks for your quick response Ethan. My device is not jailbroken and I am aware that iOS is supposed to be very secure, but I believe there have been occasions where malware has found it's way on Apple devices and and Apple themselves state this on part of their support sites. So, how can you be so sure?
iOS devices cannot be hacked or infected unless jailbroken. That is the only way. I have never heard of an incident where an unmodified iOS device has been hacked.
ok, I am probably just paranoid...Apple are referring to very specific scenarios on the support page. Thanks Ethan, I am 95% reassured.
You're welcome. Also, Apple did not write the support page. One of our fellow users, John Galt, wrote it. No one from Apple works here.
Malware?
