IPhone users are being massively phished

Alert, if you are receiving a certain message in English, informing you that your iCloud account has probably been deactivated, with a link that provides absolutely nothing, you are probably the object of the most lewd phishing that we find in the Apple Universe. Delete this message and ignore it, the only thing they want is to capture your user passwords from your Apple ID and wreak havoc with it, the future will probably be blackmail in exchange for your information, or much worse, everything is with the sole intention of unlocking an iOS device that you have previously been stripped of, so, alert these last days to any SMS a stranger.

The funny thing about this message is that it contacts you by your own name, something that scares you from the start. Currently this event is occurring especially in the owners of iPhone in the United Kingdom, we have not yet found this "strain" of phishing in Iberian territory, but you never know. The intention is to get your personal information only by accessing your iCloud account, where you probably have compromising photographs or sensitive data, as happened with CelebGate, whose mechanism was more or less the same. They pose as Apple's technical support, but always doubt these types of messages, Apple will never contact you by these methods, they usually prefer email, and also verified.

What Apple will never provide is a link to enter your account, it will simply remind you to do it yourself, it is a good way to differentiate a scam. Remember that the iTunes Store will never ask you for personal or sensitive information by e-mail. If you are receiving these types of messages or some different but just as suspicious, you can notify Apple at abuse@icloud.com or iMessage.spam@apple.com where they will rush to find the focus of the scam and block it.
