Cyber criminals are targeting iPhone users in the U.S. with a new phishing campaign aimed at stealing Apple IDs, according to security company Symantec. They are sending text messages that appear to be from Apple, encouraging recipients to click on links and sign in to their iCloud accounts. This type of cyberattack, known as "smishing," aims to lure people into sharing personal information such as passwords and credit card data. To protect yourself, avoid opening text messages from unknown phone numbers claiming to be from Apple. Instead, go directly to the login pages to access your iCloud account. Always enable two-factor authentication for extra security and be wary of any requests for personal information from supposed Apple representatives. If in doubt, contact the company directly rather than responding to suspicious messages. Stay vigilant and update your security software regularly to stay safe from phishing scams.
