Today my iPhone screen appeared in Russian. My phone locked itself. And this has made me wonder what"s happening. Why would a little old lady like me seem to be of interest to some hacker?? Ha ha ha. You all know the great shape I'm in. My organs aren't worth harvesting. I've no porno interest and my pension check won't buy much. Perhaps some Russian thinks I was active in Russia during WW II? I wasn't even born till it was over. I was considered a Sudetenland refugee till 1989 because my family was ousted into Germany by the Czechs and Russians. Some of my family was murdered in the process. My auntie remembered that time of hardship and told me stories that filled my eyes with tears.
What is going on in our cyber world?? I'm on my way to the Apple store to see what they might do to help. Apple claims to have great security. Let's see what they will do. I just hope I'm not back in some bot net. It's possible that a recent upgrade to a new wifi modem might have something to do with my heartache. It has put a damper on my blogging fun because I worry about being on the web.
This stuff is so good when it works, and soooo frustrating when it doesn't! Hope you get it sorted out soon.
ReplyDeleteI so agree with Wendy. I do hope you get everything sorted out soon.
ReplyDeleteI spent 3 hours. at the Apple and phone carrier stores. I found that they were very helpful. I also learned that an anonymous id hit my account database. I will now check regularly to keep them at bay.
ReplyDeleteAha! Glad to hear it's all right. That would have scared me, for sure!
ReplyDeleteno idea, since i don't have a cell phone of any kind, hope it fixed soon
ReplyDeleteInteresting. I guess we never know what might happen with these phones we use or the technology we use. I don't understand what I use. I just use it. I guess this can get us in trouble.
ReplyDeleteInteresting that your i-phone may have gotten hacked. But then if it runs software, it is vulnerable.
