Can anyone tell me if ********* is a legitimate site? I need to fill out information but I don't know if it can be trusted?
<Link Edited by Host>
It is a scam. Do not respond.
Why would you think a site with that domain would be a legit Apple site? Apple sites have the domain apple.com
not something-apple.com.
Thanks. I got it. But did you see the website? Incredible. Then I found out it isn't working. But still. Wow
No I did not see the website. Phishers/crooks copy or create legit looking sites to lure visitors into their trap. The domain name is a sure indication that it is not a legit Apple site. Do not even visit such sites, especially if you received the bogus link in an email or other unsolicited communication.
Thanks again. This actually was a phone call to the number (not mine) that you provide as your safety net in case the phone gets stolen. The phone got stolen. The owner blocked everything. Then the safety number got a call, that indeed the phone was found. Anyway, you helped me lot. Big scam.
Whenever you are unsure about a site you can do a whois lookup on them. Here is the whois lookup for telcel-apple.com: http://whois.domaintools.com/telcel-apple.com
hi, my phone was stolen tonal i got a text from them. will the text help me find my phone? do you know what it means in terms of the stolen phone?
The text will be part of a scam. If your phone is activation locked through Find my iPhone/iCloud they will try to either gain your credentials so they can unlock the phone, or persuade you to remove it from your list of devices in order to remove the activation lock. Hopefully you have reported the theft and cancelled the SIM (£220 worth of fraudulent calls were made with mine when it was stolen). If you have reported the crime you could let the authorities know about the text you have received.

"text" to what device?
If your iPhone is in the possession of the thief, how do YOU get it?
