Can an iPhone get malware from visiting an infected website?
I visited a URL today that I believed to be reputable, however it immediately redirected me many times to multiple websites with long, unrecognisable addresses before an Apple pop up appeared asking me if I wanted to open the Music app. I pressed no and closed the tab. I have since cleared “history and website data” in Safari settings, and was using private browsing at the time. What I would like to know is whether my iPhone 8 could have been infected with any malware or if any other security/privacy breaches could have occurred when I visited this site. I scanned the website afterwards with a safety checker tool, and the report came back as there being a malicious infection and redirects. I main worry is that I have my debit card stored in Apple Pay and also in Auto-fill, along with all of my logins. Could I be at risk? Thank you in advance 🙂
