Expert Opinion
Hang up immediately on calls alleging unauthorized Apple charges—these are classic scam tactics to steal your info. Scammers spoof numbers to mimic legit sources, preying on panic over fake transactions like $1,000 Apple Pay hits. Never call back or share details; verify directly via Apple's official app or site. Block the number and report to the FTC at ftc.gov/complaint to curb these nuisances. Staying vigilant prevents identity theft—use two-factor authentication and monitor accounts regularly for real threats.
