I started getting emails (that went straight to spam) about my account having changes made. I haven't used it in forever and ignored the first one. As soon as they started coming in Chinese I knew it was comprised. I reset the password but could not login because I couldn't answer (or reset) the security questions, which were now all in Chinese

Called in at 8:50, got a useless run around from the AI gatekeeper, until it apologized at 9:02 that all the real people were off shift and to call back tomorrow.

Fuck Apple.

Update: Fuck Apple with a rusty cheese grater

I feel yah. About one year after AI really started coming around, I got inundated with login attempt notifications and 2FA verification requests. I'm in IT and I've never seen anything like it. And now they're getting really good. Just a few years back I had a phishing mail I even almost fell for. It was really well made. Then I backed up and figured, and I went into a VM instance, downloaded the shit and monitored what it was trying to do, and I was like, fuck, I didn't fall for this, but ENOUGH PEOPLE will for sure.

It's a brave new world, my friend.
