SCAMS: The Message Came From Apple. Apple Didn't Send It
from Shane Hewitt and The Nightshift · host iHeartRadio
iCloud phishing scams are targeting Canadians with messages so convincing they fooled a cybersecurity analyst's own mother. The pitch is simple: your storage is full, pay four dollars or lose your photos. One click hands scammers your account, your contacts, your messages, and your credit card. There is no storage. There is no Apple on the other end. A separate scam is hitting small business owners through Meta's own systems, using legitimate-looking business manager requests to lock owners out of their pages entirely. Once access is gone, getting it back is a fight. Topics: iCloud scam, phishing, cybersecurity, Facebook business page fraud, small business security GUEST: Ritesh Kotak | http://riteshkotak.com Originally aired on 2026-05-22
