I got a text message last week that was looking for my location for having malicious activity. I have an iPhone, and it was on a green 716 number, when regular texts are blue. It looked like a scam, since it had a white screen where pictures are sent. Yes, I deleted it and erased my iPhone completely!😊

Just because you got a message doesn’t mean you’re under any danger. You don’t have to change passwords or anything, just block and forget.
