Threaten 1.46 billion iPhone users around the world, new Apple ID phishing campaign ravages the Internet

According to news on July 6, Symantec published a blog post on July 2, stating that it had discovered a new round of phishing attacks targeting Apple IDs, threatening 1.46 billion iPhone users around the world. Symantec said in a blog post that attackers forged emails and messages posted by Apple and used phishing campaigns to trick users into clicking links (such as reading important notifications about iCloud), thereby stealing users' sensitive information. The blog post pointed out that most phishing campaigns are sent by email, but there are more and more ways of malicious text messages. Users may receive the following text message content, translated as follows: Apple Important request for iCloud: Please visit signin [.] authen-connexion [. ] info /icloud to continue using your service. After users click on the link, they will jump to a high imitation iCloud page, and after logging in, they will enter an outdated iCloud login template. Apple recommends that iPhone users add two-factor authorization (2FA) to add an extra layer of security to their Apple ID. To access an Apple account using 2FA, users receive a text message with a special one-time six-digit code that must be entered to access the Apple account.
