What Apple should really do is a lot more: 1: register the moment that the phone was last held by the owner 2: provide continuous tracking data to the owner 3: take photos periodically, including if medical information is accessed 4: email the user with a standard &quot;so you have lost your phone&quot; message 5: add the phone to blacklists on every telco it has a relationship with 6: report the loss to police 7: send information to the owner and police as soon as that phone accesses any network. Etc.

Unfortunately, I think a ton of people today still would not know the difference between a &quot;green URL&quot; and an unencrypted URL, or the fact that &quot;find-iphone-location.com&quot; is phishy.<p>I used to work at a large, competent tech company whose 401k plan was managed on a URL similar to &quot;accessmy401k.com&quot; -- it seemed similarly phishy to me but apparently enough people thought it was a good idea that this financial institution decided to make it their online portal to actual 401ks. I often see my less savvy friends going to places like &quot;cheap-christmas-lights.net&quot; when they want cheap Christmas lights.<p>I appreciate what the big browsers do when it comes to showing secure connections and highlighting the domain in certain cases, which is pretty much as far as we allow them to go in order to stay in control of our own browsing experiences, but part of me wishes it were a little bit more explicit. There are for sure potential drawbacks... when my Mom said she was booking tickets on &quot;CheapOAir.com&quot; I immediately thought it was a scammy site, but it&#x27;s actually legit. But a browser (especially a browser on an iPhone?) should be able to see you&#x27;re at &quot;find-iphone-location.com&quot; and maybe just assist the user a little bit by saying &quot;Hey, just so you know, this is not a legitimate Apple&#x2F;iPhone service&quot; automatically.

I would say my bigger security takeaway from this is never use Medical ID!

I&#x27;ve noticed that spear phishing attacks have become quite a bit more sophisticated lately. This is a good example of it, but I&#x27;ve gotten emails supposedly from Stripe, my bank (not a common one that would suggest a mass attack), my credit card company, all quite convincing. At first glance I was fooled, but thankfully figured them out before giving away my accounts. I&#x27;ve since become more vigilant of course.<p>In none of these cases did my email provider figure out that the sender was malicious.

Agree with everything the author said.<p>I&#x27;ll also go further and say you should be using a password manager, so even if you do end up getting scammed out of a login, they can&#x27;t easily compromise your other accounts (obviously this depends on the kind of account being scammed).<p>Use a password manager and 2FA whenever possible!

Is this a repost? I feel that I&#x27;ve read this already, quite a while ago.

I would suspect that they needed your credentials so that they could get around the activation lock so that they can sell your phone...

How do they get phone number and email address?
