New "Apple" support scam

Got 10 robocalls in one hour from “Apple” saying that my iCloud account has been compromised and that I need to call back for support before continuing to use my Apple devices. As a Linux user, I don’t use Apple. I noticed there have been 114 complaints on this number after I Googled the number and most said that when they called back, it was an Indian call center. The telephone number is (203)658-1801.

@theplaguedoctor#137612 Number is dead, closed until further notice.

This number now seems to lead to an actual Apple store.

I recorded the message from the Apple store, saying someone tried to use the phone number for fradulent purposes.

@josephnormandgrinnell#137795 Interesting! Thanks. I’m glad that it doesn’t actually link to the scammers.

@kirby668#137620 Good to hear that.

@1888TechLineOfficial#137619 Thanks. I’ll have to bookmark the website link because my number seems to be the object of a variety of scams unfortunately…
