Fraudsters have begun to increasingly use iPhone hacking schemes under the guise of installing applications removed from the App Store. The scheme itself has existed for quite a long time, but is now relevant again.
The victim is recommended to install an application removed from the App Store or a modified (hacked for Premium and other functions) application on the iPhone. To do this, use the attacker’s Apple ID instead of your own.
As soon as the owner logs into the Apple Account, the smartphone is blocked. And they demand a cash payment for unlocking. Neither resetting nor rebooting will help.
In this case, there is only one piece of advice: never log in under someone else’s account.
