Everyone should be on high alert and not talk with anyone claiming to be from some computer support group that you didn’t call first.
I have a laptop and get calls from people claiming to be from Microsoft support group.
Naturally I tell them I am not interested and hang up.

Beware the nasty phishing text scam trying to fool you into thinking Apple would text you about "terminating your Apple ID" as this is something that Apple does not do. Don't fall for any such email or text message. Note the poor grammar in the text message. That should be a dead give-away it's not Apple. — PING! Pinging dayglored for his ping list for PC people who also use iPhones.
Not an Apple Text Message

You can tell by the URL that it is fake. Phishing catches stupid people. You have to wonder how they were smart enough to have anything worth taking.

They didn’t fool me with this scam. Just shows how naive most Apple buyers are. They think they buy immunity when they buy Apple’s outrageously overpriced products. As PT Barnum said, “A sucker is born every minute”

My daughter had her IPhone and IPad bricked when someone called in that they were stolen.
