Expert Opinion

Ever wondered why a Texas number keeps ringing your Dutch phone with Apple codes? It’s a classic verification code phishing trick where an automated system dials international numbers after a fake password‑reset request appears on your Apple ID. The call itself offers a spoken code, but answering simply confirms that the number is active, encouraging more spam. Block the caller immediately (spam block), delete any related SMS, and change your Apple password using a trusted device or the official website—not the link in a text. Report the number to your mobile provider and, if needed, to the local fraud centre.
