    This is social engineering and not a cyber security attack. Also you can setup 2 factor authentication on iPhone. Go into settings, tap user icon on the top, then turn on 2-factor authentication. Anyone trying to access your Apple account online would need a one time pin that is sent to your Apple device such as IPad, Mac, as well as IPhone. Do not be fooled into providing that code to anyone on the phone. Any real Apple Support will not ask for that information.
    Local news giving out false information that Apple doesn’t support 2-factor authentication. 🤦‍♂️
    This is an Ad for product Apple user don’t need. they cost a lot of money and do not protect against social engineering. The reason is because they can spoof real websites and they can change their URL faster than any security program can keep up.

      Where did you hear them saying "Apple doesn't support 2FA"? I've listened to the clip a few times but can't find that bit.

    This has nothing to do with which phone you have and everything to with the user falling for these email and texts which are not from a legitimate company. NEVER click on any link sent by anyone. Go to the site yourself and log in IF you think it is legit, otherwise just delete it and move on with your life. Stop being so gullible people. No company is contacting you this way.

    This guy, as always is completely wrong. This is not even close to a cyber attack, and Malware would not stop a “social engineering” attack. Social engineering is one of the easiest to do and hardest to stop because it depends on the gullibility of the user.

      Politics has nothing to do with this and even if the government tightened online security as far as possible These scammers would still find back doors for stealing from people. What we need to do is use good judgment and educate ourselves about these scams so we can avoid them in the first place.
