[@donthaveanameinmind2122]

In safari it’s showing me (that safari prevent 12sites from tracking you )does that mean I’m safe ? And whenever I enter a website it shows up again after I do clear history from setting

[@Cheswrsa]

One time I went to a suspicious website😏 and when I clicked on a vid, it said your phone has been hacked so I searched up signs that it could be hacked and now I know that it was just a scam

I was on the website on Safari and it was a pretty sketchy one, so I was really cautious in it and then something popped up saying you have been hacked, so I just immediately closed slide and I was really like worried if it was really hAcked

[@sophyiarobinson]

did you tho ? my phone did the same thing when i was trying to read manga on google

[@lit36812]

Thank you so much for this!!!! I was so scared because I was on safari looking up a voice actor for an anime character. And I clicked on a link that I usually go to. And I got a pop up saying I needed to download an app within 2 minutes or something bad would happen. And I was really scared that something bad might happen, but made sure not do anything till I looked it up and luckily it wasn’t anything bad!!!

[@tommadden1969]

can't get rid of the orange dot

[@zhangtony4332]

Today , I lent my iPhone to a stranger for calling. I’m now so regret to do so cause I could put my iPhone secretly at risk, especially borrowed it to a stranger. Luckily, I watched this video and checked every details and steps you said , all is good. Thank you for your video!

[@lylaroblox8310]

Thank you so much! I got a notification that I was getting hacked and you just saved my life omg

[@raymond-ji3sl]

Tysm I was shaking I didn’t even press cancel I just exit out and shut down my phone

[@bobadams179]

I got an alert that said "An attempt to change your DCU PIN has been made" or something like that, then gave a link to click on. Me being a dummy I clicked on it and it brought me to some site where they wanted to sell me some type of security software. 'DCU' is a credit union I belong to. At this credit union there is no way to change your pin unless it is assigned by the credit union. I have no choice as to what PIN they assign me. This is why I am here checking out your video today. I went through all the checks in the video and everything is in order. I have the credit union app on my phone. How did whomever sent me that link know I had an account at that credit union? Is there some program lurking in my phone waiting for me to connect to my DCU account in order to steal from me? IDK.

[@adrienagreste2670]

Thank you, I was just paranoid

[@FromRootsToRadicals_INTP]

I will assure u and have been researching this due to field I’m in. There is a exploit around that will not notify you, indicators will not notify, yet it is a full rep session take over. I noticed at first because my heptics and resolution would shift. I t would continue until I broke all connections to work and data.

What do you do if they added them selves as the “director”of my I Pad? I cannot un-tic it.

What if someone that you don’t know at all has your phone number. They can get into your phone and see your text messages? They always are texting from fake phone numbers. If I block one, they will just text right back with another one. That’s been happening to me for many years. What can I do about that?
