A third party linked to the "Celebgate" scandal appears

El Celebgate it was the least soundedFor those of you who get caught up in this a bit too late, let's recall, about three years ago an avid user got hold of the emails of a good number of Hollywood celebrities, then sent them a classic phishing email with the intention of getting their hands on their iCloud passwords. Once he had them, he dedicated himself to accessing his photo libraries and publishing them on the internet.

However, it seems that the case is not definitively closed, three years later a new user linked to this scandal has appeared and the FBI is working together with Apple to hunt down the criminal. 

Not long ago exactly the same thing happened again, a leak of photographs, and in this case Emilio Herrera (the offender of the first Celebgate) who faces five years in federal prison in the United States of America, does not appear to have been the culprit. Now is when the FBI gets down to work with the intention of clarifying what exact link the two criminals have, if any. Everything indicates that the offender could be located in Pennsylvania, but they have not given more information.

Be that as it may in Actualidad iPhone We take this opportunity to remind you that Apple will never ask you for any type of compromised information such as your iCloud password, so you should run away directly, delete the email but not before adding it to the SPAM list to save its views. These types of emails are much more successful than we can imagine, so it is not only important for us to know how to deal with them, but also to remind those less familiar with these systems how they can prevent it. This is how the vast majority of crimes of this type are committed, be wary of giving your data by email.
