Newscenter Media News American multinational corporation and technology company, Apple has warned iPhone users of possible spyware attacks which will hit no fewer than 98 countries.
The identity of the attackers and the nations where users received notifications were not disclosed in the official notice issued by the tech company on Wednesday.
“Apple detected that you are being targeted by a mercenary spyware attack that is trying to remotely compromise the iPhone associated with your Apple ID -xxx-,” the company wrote in the warning to affected customers.
“This attack is likely targeting you specifically because of who you are or what you do. Although it’s never possible to achieve absolute certainty when detecting such attacks, Apple has high confidence in this warning — please take it seriously,” Apple added in the text.
