They sent me a message on my phone saying that there was a hacking scam on my apple phone and to call immediately
I called and they tried to sell a mobile
Virus    Apple knew nothing of this.

I called them luckily they asked for my credit card but my parents weren't here so I didn't give it I was so scared did they give me a virus by the call????

said went into illegal site. and has been hacked and need to pay $100

Popped up while on my phone on the Internet. When I called tried to tell me I had been hacked and tried to sell me protection. Once I told them I had no financial information on my phone they didn't seem to care much anymore. MUST BE A SCAM RIGHT?

I got a bogus friend request through Facebook,and then they'd sent me a message through Facebook messenger saying that a great time happened in their life recently. It was a fake account of one of my friends I've worked with 16 years ago. Then while reading an email, this urgent message popped up saying that i needed to call this number. I did not call because I thought it was a scam. It said my personal and financial info was at risk and needed to call immediately. A few days later, I was searching something on safari and a notification with this number popped up again. I would try exiting out of it but it kept telling me to call. Please make this stop.

BULL - another pathetic SHILL attempt to steal your money.

They are NOT APPLE!!   SHILL ALERT!!

Wow! An amazing inept shill! Busted little man! You efforts failed big time!

Say WHAT???  What on earth is the blessed platform?  Is that something that foreign shills use to scam hard-working Americans and Canadians?
I hope you like red, because your post will be stamped with it some time soon.

The only persons who should be touching your computer is you, your manufacturer, Real Windows support that you have called and/or maybe a real live tech you see face to face! And be very very leery of numbers when you look to call the real ones, there are fake websites up. Never call numbers from pop ups either, thats scareware.

Received a pop up on my iPad to immediate call this number due to malicious hardware (hacker). Called this number and person claiming to be from Apple Text Support & in order to stop hacker I needed to download a program for $99. When I said I rather go into the Apple Store, he said it will cost me more $149 and it will take 5 days. BS!!!!

Pop up on my iPad. Stated malware on my device and I was being hacked.
Told me to call apple support at this number. I got suspicious when talking to them as they were attempting to get my personal info.  Googled the phone number and found this.

Brand new iPad Pro had this virus on it when starting it up and registering it. Message indicated they were formatting my iPad unless I called.  Went to Apple to help decrease the Windows viruses etc. Purchased through a seller through Sears! Had to Block number. but damage is done!  When will our government or someone take responsibility for all of this spam, the crime,  and punish these people.  Too bad they can't focus their energy on something positive; guess they aren't bright enough to figure it out.
