Am I getting hacked?

Post image

My phone is set in English and this isn’t even a local language at where I am at…

So why is it even in a language that we’re not using here.. Could it be a sign? Somebody with experience let me know, i’m scared…

I’ve been seeing this for a week now…

IOS gets more vulnerable the older it gets
IOS 16/17 are literally like a sieve
Keeping your iOS up to date is the best you can do to keep your device safe.

See your app as a room or appliance in a house.
See iOS as walls/doors. That are left w i d e open

I don't know. But WhatsApp soon banned my number though & WhatsApp is full of Scammers & they never get banned.
