How can I report a possible fraud attempt?
I got a call from so-called Tech Dept for Windows operating system. They said that 72.2% of my system was already damaged. They wanted me to buy security software at the price of 1 year, 2 years or life. I told them I want to come back with them. The two that I spoke with had accents (South-East) Indians and their number was 201-688-7115. I just want to announce that someone is trying to harm people in this way.
Scam.
Do not respond.

How can I report a phishing email claiming to be from Apple?
I recently received the following:
Dear Apple customer, Your identifier Apple (***@gmail,com) has been used to restore a device of one of your iCloud backups.
IPhone (iPhone 5) of the device: Kewar
If you have recently restored this device, you can ignore this message.
If you have not recently restored a device or you think someone may have accessed your account, we recommend that you visit the link below to verify that you are the rightful owner of the account. Check it out now > Apple support Given that neither the identifier Apple, nor the name of the iPhone are valid, it's obviously a phishing expedition. How can I report it to Apple?

it look like you or the other person has sent the e-mail. Someone intercepted an email and
It may not be you who caused him. Account of a friend could have been consulted
or even someone could have sent an email on your behalf to someone else who has been
compromise. Your friend can access headers and block the real senders of
those who will change often.How to read the message headers

How can I report any apparent bugs in iOS?
I found two related bugs in iOS. Where can I report them? Both seem to be present from the first version of the iOS 9 to 9.2.1 and one at least was present on my iPhone so 5s.
Bug1 - when I turn myiPhone 6s more laterally in the landscape mode and try to type (in iMessaging) the keyboard stops responding and I have to return the phone in mode portrait in order to continue.
Bug2 - the equalizer settings seem to be affecting the system, not only the music sounds. I noticed when I left the setting equalizer "Late Night" while sending and reception of texts (send it and receive sounds). With EQ settings on sounds break and cracked, with EQ off is not.
iOS version 9.2.1 iPhone 6s longer.
