I received a phone call on January 21, 202 from a guy by the name of Mark King emp. # APL0816, phone # he gave me was 559-484-2920 however he called me from 800-934-2575. Told me my Apple account had been hacked by someone in Ohio and Florida. Didnt know at first this was a scam and he had me to to apple/support. (something.. don’t remember) and proceeded to show me the hacking activity (which I am sure was fake, also showed me what a "Computer worm" was, talked me into allowing him access to my computer, then said check your bank account for suspicous activity and did (what several other people did, which i heard about on this website) go to my bank. then he said to protect my apple account I needed to get a license key card from Walgreens, Rite-aid. and it would be no cost to me and Apple will pay for it, but I had to get it first then apple would deposit the money into my bank account didnt find out how much, that’s when i realized it was FRAUD… OMG, I feel super stupid, but these people are really convincing. This has never happened to be before, and I hope these [censored] are caught somehow.
