Website-NFC Tag - for my own AirTag

I keep getting messages with the title "Website-NFC-Tag" and the body "open found.apple.com in Safari". The strange thing is that I then see the serial number of my own AirTag which is on my keyring and which I have registered in "Find my...", just like several others (e.g. one which is in my backpack) which never creates such an alert.

What the heck is going, anybody has an idea? Thanks!

iPhone 13, iOS 16

It would be better if you can please re-post with a screenshot, in order to understand the phenomenon better. Images/pictures speak louder than words. 


Please understand this is a public forum: While attaching a Screenshot, do not provide any personal credentials, such as IP address, Card detail, email id, apple id, IMEI number, Serial Number, Phone number, Order ID, if you are sharing a map ensure your location is not identifiable, etc.



With the limited information that you have provided, It is hard to even guess the problems faced by you.

If you feel an unauthorized website/person is remotely controlling or monitoring your devices, then that is possible only if you have done one or more of the following Don'ts...


  1. Don't hand over an iPhone to kids or to a stranger without Enabling Guided Access
  2. Don't share Apple IDs
  3. Don't Jailbreak
  4. Don't share sensitive information pertaining to your device
  5. Don't give in to Phishing
  6. Don't leave your iPhone unlocked and unattended in public places like offices, schools, malls etc.


If one of the above is true then quickly change the Apple ID Password. Every Airtag is linked to an Apple ID and can't be accessed using any other iPhone/iPad/Mac leave alone websites.
