Find my iPhone text message phishing fraud? - and attention!

I suspect that the found your iPhone SMS was a phishing fraud to try to get the Apple ID and password. My friend lost his iPhone in Europe. He received a text message that the phone was found and a link to connect to Apple to see its location. I've connected separately, don't use only not this link and saw that my iPhone had no record of the phone that appear anywhere. Don't you think I'm not mistaken? Has anyone else seen elsewhere? Be careful out there.

Yes, it's a fairly common scam.

    This site explains the steps on how you can try to find your iPhone. Apple has no way to do it for you other than what is explained. You seem familiar with this utility already, but just to reassure you, it is the only medium in which you can track your iPhone. If it has been removed, so there is no other way. I suggest that you contact your local law enforcement to file a report for your lost device. They only want your S/N so that they can identify it is yours if happen them to find.

  • Email text Message shown time and blackBerry Smartphones

    Hello

    I'm getting used to my Blackberry Curve 9360, but when I turn on my phone, two or three times a day, all emails and messages show the time that I turned on my phone and not the moment where they were sent. Is it possible that I can change this? I need to know when the messages were sent to me, not when my phone was turned on? Help is appreciated thank you in advance.

    Text messages are managed by your carrier. I can only suggest to use a client of sms 3rd party like SMSCrunch. Maybe, that can give you the time, it was sent or received.

    You can also ask your carrier for the same information and whether they can send it to you (some of my friends who make heavy texting, have asked their carriers send delivery times with their bills.)

  • Text message sent by LabVIEW by using ActiveX controls and Internet Explorer

    Well, it sure seemed like it should have worked but not luck. When I try to add FormElement with present in my VI after I wire in the reference he wire automatically changes to a regular feature.  Then he used to run because submit is not an option for item, I need to change back to click submit it.

    I don't understand, it really seems that the click should work, and it seems that the shipment must have also worked.  It was pretty easy to enter text in different areas.

    Have you tried my modified version?  Who uses IHTMLFormElement correctly.  If you then change the name of the element of 'Send Message' to 'txtmsg' (the name of the shape), it seems to work - or at least, it appears a window advertising in Internet Explorer (I have not filled in all the areas that I don't want to give my phone number or e-mail address to some random site, especially one that opens to the ad).

    When you try to change to FormElement, what measures do you take?  You change the type of the entry 'type' to the variant to the data?  You will need to right-click on this constant, select ActiveX class... and IHTMLFormElement.

    As a note of style of LabVIEW, you must close all ActiveX references that you open.  This means that any references (IHTMLFormElement, IHTMLElementCollection, etc.) need a reference close when you are finished with them.

    Again, I think sending an email is a better way to send a text message from LabVIEW, and besides, you might be able to find a better site to do.  TMobile allows subscribers to send SMS messages via their website and it seems that AT & T provides a similar service; Verizon offers a web page to send TEXT messages to their users.

    EDIT: also, the button send is not a named element (it has a "Value" property, but not a 'Name' property) so you can't get a reference to that name.  If you're exploring the output of the IHTMLElementCollection property node element, you will see that it returns a varying empty, this is why the 'click' has no effect.

  • lost or stolen iPhone. It is w / 'Find my iPhone', later received email that it has been found. No call and impossible to recover, now phone is in offline mode. I am leasing through the iPhone upgrade program. Help, please.

    6 sec more lost/stolen iPhone. Turned on the 'lost' Mode and displays the number to call if found on-screen. It is w / "Find my iPhone", went up, no response from any home in the area. Later received an email that it was found, still no call to the number on the screen. Several unsuccessful attempts to get it back, now the phone is in offline mode and says that the history of the site is not available. I left a note on all the doors in the place indicated on the "find my iPhone" describing my phone lost and left a number to call. I am leasing through the iPhone upgrade program. Help, please.

    There is no way to locate now, unless the one who found it exerts a force on you contact on this number you posted

    The good news is, since you have find my iPhone, they will not be able to reuse the phone even if they are trying to restore. Unless they know your password, or you have a valid proof of purchase AGFI won't be deleted.

    So if the person who found the phone knows about it, he or she would rather go back because it would be of no use to them.

  • iCloud & find my iPhone

    I got my iphone stolen at the beginning of the month. Fortunately, I find my iPhone turned on. Cannot locate, but I did the auto erase operation once it connects to the Wifi. (Still called customer service to check my steps and listed IMEI / phone stolen from Verizon). I got a new phone and changed all my passwords.

    Since the 14, I have been making messages indicating of '[email protected]' " [notice] your lost iphone was dound, please refer to the assistance of apple apple.app0info-id.com/us specific location." Who sews already suspicious. Then I get a message from the same appl...@icloud saying ' Dear Sir, your identifier Apple was signed in iCloud on Alexandre iPhone.» If you believe an accessoed unauthorized person to your account, please in sin and manage your account immediately by going to apple.app-info-id.com/us"... always suspicious. Called apple, not possible to locate the phone, when I "Find my iPhone" through my site app and icloud (a play), it is always offline. So I gave up to find my phone.

    Since Sunday, now I get another set of messages "[email protected] , [email protected] ,[email protected]" (totally suspicious) all declaring «[[email protected]] [718-...» (my email real icloud and cell no.) Apple logo [find my iPhone] iPhone lost was properly located. Please visit www.apple-erd.com to find the specific location information. We will come to your aid to find the lost iPhone. [Apple support] »

    I tried to google the web address first, but nothing came, so I went to look at a computer without itunes or whatever it is (who you going to scam?) and links to a website that looks totally "find my iphone" logo with a whole. ' " They ask you to connect to your iCloud... Of course, but someone met similar messages has not signed?

    I don't really know what to do at this point. Verizon and apple don't see my old recorded phone anywhere and say 'they will not be able to get a new supplier, since the IMEI and serial number are listed as stolen. Is this true?

    Edit: I posted this on the forum iPhone with no responses. Now I get messages saying that my ' found lost iPhone and go to Apple Support www.iCloud-hk.net '

    Thank you

    These are all attempts of phishing to help you enter your password to access Apple ID.

  • transfer text messages

    Hi all

    I just got an iPhone SE. I have the people (iMessage and SMS) message on my Macbook and my iPhone, but since I have this phone, text (NO iMessage) messages sync on my laptop and the phone. If I have any messages anyone of my laptop, it starts a new conversation on my phone and vice versa. (What's a sense? It looks like I'll have a long talk with myself, or someone is messaging me without the answer.)

    I know it has to do with the transmission of text Message, so I'll try to set up on my phone. There are two options on my phone: my macbook and my phone and the macbook option is checked (green). I'm checking off my iPhone, so I click on it, and it gives me the ' enter the code shown on your iPhone-iPhone text messages also be sent and received on a "My iPhone '." "pop-up.

    However, I do not get any code.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!!

    Hi emelvee,

    Thank you for coming to us in Apple Support communities for support. I am pleased to provide you with resources to help get your SMS sending works again.

    To start, make sure that you have enabled the options mentioned in this article:

    Continuity of use to connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and Mac

    On your iPhone, go to settings > Messages > Send and receive. Add a control to both your phone number and email address. Then go to settings > Messages > text Message Forwarding and activate the device or devices that you want to transfer the messages.

    Note that the list of devices here is for devices other than the one you are using. This means that if you see another iPhone listed in SMS forwarding, you're probably connected to your Apple ID on another iPhone. That would explain why you do not see the code they ask you on your iPhone.

    If you are still experiencing problems with sending/receiving SMS on both devices after confirmation that it can help reconnect the two devices for your Apple for message ID. To do this on your iPhone:

    Open one session with another Apple ID on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

    1. Tap Settings > Messages.
    2. Tap, send and receive.
    3. Enter your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.

    On your MacBook Pro:

    1. Open messages
    2. In the menu bar to open your Messages > Preferences > accounts
    3. Choose your Apple ID on the left
    4. Click sign out

    Once you're disconnected in these two places, go ahead and sign at the same time in the same place, then configure your SMS transfer using the aforementioned article, or this one:

    Messages (El Capitan): Get and send SMS messages

    I hope you have a great rest of your day! See you soon.

  • Classic text messages blackBerry 7.1 not restored

    Hello

    I pass a device of a "BOLD" with the OS 7.1 to a classic. I can't restore the old device text messages during the switch. I tried 2 ways:

    1 SD card backup and restore. According to the app, text messages are saved and then onto the new device restored, however when I open the SMS on the new device, it says 'No entrΘes in this point of view' and I can't find any of my text messages.

    2 blackberry link. Backup and restore gently, and the application lists the messages MMS and SMS as being transferred. However, once opening text Messages after restoring to the device again, nothing.

    Can someone enlighten me on this?

    Best,

    J

    Text messages are now in place.

    I did my "BOLD" gradually, moving from the export/import. I wanted a solution to the problem of text message, I waited a few days before actually making the final switch. I decided to go anyway and put in my new SIM card in the classic. After that, when I looked around I found that text messages are there in my classic.

    So either the card SIM must be set up for the text messages to appear (b n - This was a new SIM card, not the old SIM used on the "BOLD"), or it was just a matter of time (I read somewhere in the documentation that it can take a while before all data transferred is visible on the new device no reason given as to why).

    So, if you run into this issue:

    1. Add the SIM card to the new device

    and/or

    2. wait

    Worked for me.

    Oh and save the former such device until things are developed. If nothing else, you can do some sort of manual backup of important text messages, such as taking pictures.

    Best,

    J

  • Is «Find your iPhone» send automatic text messages, which do not appear on the phone?

    I'm on a pre-pay program with my iPhone 5.  Recently, I discovered that the balance of my phone has been reduced, even if I did not use my phone at this time.  My local carrier has since informed my that my iPhone has sent international text messages (which I don't see on my phone), and it is because of "Antitheft" is enabled in the settings on my phone that I need to turn it off.

    (1) I can't find anything called anti-theft on my phone - anything like this exist?

    (2) I am working on the assumption that maybe my carrier meant the "find my iPhone" and not anti-theft.  But "Find my iPhone" send SMS to a number, without any notification to me?

    1 n ° find that my iPhone is probably what they were referring.

    2 No., SMS Messages are sent to England for activation of iMessage, which you will not be charged if you use your phone with a carrier iPhone supported.

  • my ipod touch received a text and panoramic photo from an iphone 6se, now my messages are empty and starts a restart, is there a way to fix this?

    my ipod touch received a text and panoramic photo from an iphone 6se, now my messages are empty and starts a restart, is there a way to fix this?

    I can't really answer this question completely because I don't know what software was used, or what processes might have been involved in stitching panoramic photo. A possible "fix" would be to save the image on an external and view on a larger screen - like an iMac.

    If your version is actually 4.3.2 is perhaps part of the problem. The latest version of iOS is 9.3.5.

    SMS or text messages, are a specific function of the carrier. You must have an addition of text on your cell phone plan. If you can not send SMS, you must contact your operator to solve the problems.

  • Text Message Forwarding lack of Mac OS and iOS 10

    Am I missing something? I'm not able to find the text Message Forwarding since I updated my iPhone to iOS 10.0.1 6 and my MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inches, end 2013) for MacOS Sierra 10.12.

    This is a feature that has been removed with iOS 10 and Sierra of MacOS? This is a feature that worked before when I was on iOS 9 and OS X El Capitan.

    Now when I'm in my settings of the iPhone 6 > Messages, there is no option of text Message transmission.

    And 15 minutes later with to do anything, text Message Forwarding is back as an option in my settings iOS 10 for iMessages now... ODD
