The Texarkana Arkansas Police Department has a warning about a new phishing scam that is targeting Apple users through fake iCloud calendar invitations.
A new phishing scam is targeting Apple users through fake iCloud calendar invitations. Victims receive what looks like an invoice-related invite from a genuine Apple email address. Inside the notes, there’s an alarming message about a large PayPal charge, along with a phone number to call for support.
But authorities warn the number connects directly to scammers, not Apple. If you call, they may try to take control of your computer and steal personal information or money.
Experts advise: don’t click, accept, or decline suspicious calendar invites—just delete them. And never call numbers listed in unexpected emails. If you’re worried about a charge, check your account directly through the official website or app.
