New iPhone Scam Targets Job Seekers in Belarus

Residents of Belarus are warned about a new type of fraud. Scammers are posing as employers and conducting fake job interviews. During these interviews, they trick victims into accessing their Apple ID, using the Locator app to lock the iPhone and then demanding money for unlocking it. One victim reported, "I was so shocked when my phone locked during the interview. I didn't know what to do." This new scheme highlights the importance of being vigilant when dealing with unknown individuals online. Authorities are investigating and urging citizens to report any similar incidents.
