What can someone do with my Apple ID password?
Yes, if someone knows your Apple ID/Password, they can activate iMessage on a device & send such using your ID. However, every time iMessage is activated on a device, you’ll receive a notice, from Apple, informing you of such. If you suspect someone knows your Apple ID/Password, you should change your password.
Can someone watch me through FaceTime?
A new creepy flaw in Apple’s popular video and audio call app FaceTime allows the caller to listen in on the receiver’s iPhone, even if that person has not picked up the call, according to multiple news reports and users who claims they have experienced the bug.
Can someone access your iPhone remotely?
If your iPhone backs everything up to your iCloud account, then someone can spy on your activity by accessing your iCloud account from any web browser. They would need your Apple ID username and password in order to do this, so if you know that a third party has that information, there are a few steps you should take.
Is FaceTime video call encrypted?
Apple says their messages and FaceTime calls are end-to-end encrypted and nobody can access them.
Will Apple alert me if someone tries access my account?
If someone has my Apple ID and logs into it, will Apple notice me? The short answer is: Yes! Since 2017, Apple has added security and they will notify you via email if your Apple ID is logged in on a new device. If the login is unauthorized by you, you can remove that device from your Apple ID in iCloud.
What happens if you log into someone’s Apple ID?
As soon as you let someone enter their Apple ID on your Apple device, you effectively relinquish possession of it. But as soon as the victim enters another person’s Apple ID, the iPhone is immediately added to that person’s list of associated devices in iCloud, and henceforth can do anything they like with it.
Is my Apple ID SAFE from hackers?
No, it’s not. Simply change your Apple ID password if you think your Apple ID has been compromised. You might also want to change your email account passwords, the security questions for your Apple ID, and any other account passwords that might have been stored in your iCloud backup.
What should I do if my Apple ID has been compromised?
If you think your Apple ID was compromised, use these steps to gain control of it and review your account information: Sign in to your Apple ID account page. Change your Apple ID password and choose a strong password. Review all the personal and security information in your account.
You shared your password with someone else intentionally or unintentionally. For example, someone else selected your password for you, you told someone your password, or you might have entered your password on a “phishing” site. You don’t have control of the email address or phone number associated with your Apple ID.
Why can’t I sign in to my Apple ID?
Sign in to your Apple ID account page. If you can’t sign in or you receive a message that the account is locked when you try to sign in, try to reset or unlock your account. Change your Apple ID password and choose a strong password. Review all the personal and security information in your account.
