#1 daniel3112 on 20 Sep 24Is it really something I should be worried about? I use iCloud for everything-photos, backups, even some of my personal documents. I'm not too tech-savvy, so I'm wondering if there are any common traps people fall into that I should be aware of?

#2 denis12 on 20 Sep 24Oh, it's definitely something to be concerned about! With so much personal information stored on iCloud, it's a prime target for scammers. A lot of people fall for phishing emails that seem to be from Apple but aren't. They trick you into entering your login details, which they use to access your account. I've seen people get locked out of their accounts or even have their data held for ransom.
