Their was a pop up on my IPhone and said that I was in danger of a virus. The pop up wouldn’t allow me to do anything on Safari. Their number also popped up and said to call them. I called and they acted as if they were “Apple Customer Care”. They asked me to buy a $50 ITunes card and they would send me a link for a virus removal software, type the pin in and the virus would be removed in about 5 mins. They ended the call by giving me a case reference number to call back when I had purchased a card. I quickly did an Apple search to see if IPhones could get viruses and found that they couldn’t. This number was a scam. I closed Safari, refreshed the app, went back to safari and quickly closed the open webpages (takes several tries; repeat as necessary). My phone now works completely fine.

Like “Almost Scammed” I had the same pop up except they expected me to buy a $100 iTunes card & then I would later be reimbursed. I said not likely on a gift card. & asked him if he was aware of federal law statue 22c section 47b - he asked what that was & I stated it was the disclaimer printed on every single gift cards sold in the United States that explicitly says no refund once purchased. (Which of course i made up) he told me I was wrong, so I spent 20 minutes on the phone asking why? And requested multiple times where on the apple website I could find this disclaimer telling me this was the process and procedure. Mr “Allen Rogers” kept telling me to get my terms and conditions “book” - so I did (or at least I picked up my child’s coloring box) he then proceeded to tell me to turn to page 15 & read section 5 sentence 2. I made up topic “iPhoto’s for IOS” I asked is this the section you are telling me I can “see” where the P&P disclaimer is? Cuz it’s not,
he then asked what book I had & I said the one from Apple inc. i asked him why he didn’t know how to point me to the information, that was clearly his “job” and he began to yell at me. I then stated my phone is meraculously working now with out me having to pay $100 - he begun to praise himself for helping me.... ummmm????? I said how was it that he helped me without having paid him first? He said payment would be charge to my carrier bill, So i said “which carrier? I use 2 SIM cards for this phone? He said the one I was calling from now? I told him that my phone didn’t work to call him when The pop up came on & I had to use a land line @ the court house. He said they would get charged ..... so fucking with them I said “well Thank goodness They record all the phone call here, So they have record of this charge on the bill” - At this point someone else in the background told him to hang up. My cop pal decided to call the # on his phone & hung up. They called him back & I answered like a business, they stated they just received a call from this # & I explained they needed to now who called them because I was the operator and needed a name or department where I could transfer them too. In which they hung up. Called back & the number no longer works, like they blocked his #

THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH. i called this number thinking it was legit since my safari closed and i got the same message saying a virus was detected. He wanted me to go out and buy a $50 itunes gift card and the money would be reimbursed. Something felt fishy so i googled this number and found you guys and im so glad i didnt go out and buy that giftcard. Hoping my safari goes back to normal.

They act like Apple customer care. The same thing happened to me they told me to go buy a $100 I tune card. I told them that had nothing to do with the safari issues. I told them I would rather go to a local apple store. Rep said they would not be able to help me. I hung up. I cleared my data turned my phone off for a few minutes turned it back on and started to work again.

They will scam you, and ask you to buy ITunes gift cards. They will lock your safari, and make you pay $50.00 and hundred of dollars in apple cards. Do not give them any information, call the real apple number at 800-692 -7753. I repeat do not give them any information.

The number acted like apple he said he was named Allen and asked for my last name I said it then he said my first name. He then put me on hold, came back and said that a third party was trying to steal my information at this point I found this website and hung up.
