Victim Location 65203
Total money lost $50
Type of a scam Tech Support
This pop up appeared on my iphone while I was using my safari saying I had accessed too many unsafe sites and to contact Apple ID at the number on the screen for help. I called the number and started speaking with a "tech person" with an Indian accent who seemed to be in a room with a lot of other people. I was told I would need to pay a $50 fee to have my phone unblocked. I gave my email address and received a link to install uptu prime from the itunes store. This app was supposed to be the software to fix the issues. I gave my cc info and address to obtain the tech support and realized this was a scam after talking to a friend that works in IT. The credit card charge took a week to post and the description of the transaction says AW Star Acudefend.com UK, 00000 and has this 8 digit number 84482367.
