The caller informed Patel his account was under attack, and asked him to verify his information and provide a one-time reset code \u2013 ostensibly so the attacker could reset his password on their own. Being suspicious about the nature of the call, Patel asked them to verify some of his personal info, and the caller was able to \u2013 for the most part.<\/p>\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"adun\" data-pos=\"top\" data-raptor=\"falcon\" data-xsm=\",fluid,mpu,\" data-sm=\",fluid,mpu,\" data-md=\",fluid,mpu,\"> <noscript> <a href=\"https:\/\/pubads.g.doubleclick.net\/gampad\/jump?co=1&amp;iu=\/6978\/reg_security\/front&amp;sz=300x50%7C300x100%7C300x250%7C300x251%7C300x252%7C300x600%7C300x601&amp;tile=4&amp;c=44ZgSu6CSe-3WcEbLjbdl8MQAAAJQ&amp;t=ct%3Dns%26unitnum%3D4%26raptor%3Dfalcon%26pos%3Dmid%26test%3D0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pubads.g.doubleclick.net\/gampad\/ad?co=1&amp;iu=\/6978\/reg_security\/front&amp;sz=300x50%7C300x100%7C300x250%7C300x251%7C300x252%7C300x600%7C300x601&amp;tile=4&amp;c=44ZgSu6CSe-3WcEbLjbdl8MQAAAJQ&amp;t=ct%3Dns%26unitnum%3D426raptor%3Dfalcon%26pos%3Dmid%26test%3D0\" alt> <\/a> <\/noscript> <\/div>\n<p>&#8220;They got a lot right, from date of birth, to email, to phone number, to current address, historic addresses,&#8221; Patel reported. Luckily for Patel, he regularly checks to see what bits of his personal information are available online, and in this case it appears the data came from PeopleDataLabs \u2013 a B2B information firm.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I distinctly remember [PeopleDataLabs] mixing me up with a midwestern elementary school teacher named Anthony S,&#8221; Patel said, and that clued him in that the whole thing was a scam.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The fact the scammer called Patel directly suggests they were able to send password reset requests using Apple&#8217;s <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/iforgot.apple.com\">iForgot page<\/a>, which only asks for an email address and a solved CAPTCHA, in addition to knowing the account&#8217;s phone number, to send a password reset request.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The sheer volume of requests raises the possibility that Apple may have a rate-limiting flaw in its iForgot system that allows for bombarding users with repeated reset requests. Apple didn&#8217;t answer those questions, but did point us to a <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/en-us\/102568\">support page<\/a> for how to recognize scams and phishing attempts targeting its users.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Until Apple addresses the issue in some way, be careful tapping those alerts and ensure you never accidentally give a scammer what they want. If someone claiming to be from Apple support calls, take Apple&#8217;s advice, which makes it clear: &#8220;If you get an unsolicited or suspicious phone call from someone claiming to be from Apple or Apple Support, just hang up.&#8221; \u00ae<\/p>\n<p> READ MORE <a
