I Think Someone Has Access to My Apple Account — What Should I Do?

This is one of the scariest technology situations.

You receive a notification you don’t recognize.

You see a sign-in alert.

You notice something unusual.

And you think:

“Is somebody inside my account?”

First:

But don’t ignore it either.

Pay Attention to Unfamiliar Activity

If you see a notification, email, or account message you don’t recognize, read it carefully.

Don’t click random links just because the message looks official.

Also be careful about unexpected phone calls from someone claiming to be Apple support.

Scammers can make themselves sound extremely convincing.

Your Apple Account information is important.

Never give your password or security codes to an unexpected caller.

Don’t allow an unknown person to remotely control your device simply because they say they are helping you.

And don’t let somebody rush you.

A trustworthy support conversation should not depend on panic.

If you’re genuinely concerned, start by verifying the activity through Apple’s official account and security resources.

You can also speak with someone you trust who can help you understand what you’re seeing.

Sometimes the warning is legitimate.

Sometimes it’s simply an alert you don’t recognize.

And sometimes the message itself may be fraudulent.

The key is verification.

This is exactly the kind of moment when having a real human on the phone can make you feel less alone.
