I have a scammer who keeps messaging me about paying him. Initially, they were trying to blackmail me, and the police advised me to block and ignore them. Before I do that, I would like to inform Apple Support about this account.
The account in question is ranking.b****@icloud.com.

I have a person that keeps saying I won $3,500 and he is just wanting my information to hack everything on my phone he can. I have changed everything in my phone and even have to block him. But somehow he keeps sending me message's. I don’t answer him but continue to block him. How can I keep him from getting in my phone?

In May this year I began to get pop ups for iCloud sign in. I could not get rid of them. Some times they would go away when I restarted my computer but came back. It was very annoying. I looked up an apple support number on Chrome. I called and they said there were fraudulent charges and they would help with the matter. They had me set something up through Venmo and my bank account. So (stupidly) I gave them some info until I felt this was not appropriate. Then the man was belligerent saying he was trying to help me. Long story longer I was ripped off for $5000. My bank gave me credit initially but them out of the blue took it from my account leaving me in dire straits. It is happening to me again today and I don't know who to contact because I was ripped by some one who I though was Apple support but they were not. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Report using the links provided. The sender is likely spoofing their email address, so it is not even a valid iCloud account that appears in the email. No different than a caller spoofing their caller ID to make it appear from a different number. The email probably contains links or bitcoin account information to use, not by replying to the email.
These scammers are almost always Phishing for information. They hope you’ll reply out of fear and give them some personal information or better yet, money. Often times these threats are literally copied and pasted and sent to thousands of users. If they can get 50 out of 1,000 ppl to respond they still win. They don’t have anything on you. Block them. Report them. Move on and don’t look back. They’re just boogeymen
I need to report someone on iCloud. they got my number and i assumed i knew them. i sent pictures of myself to them, and they threatened to post my number and nudes that weren’t mine. they said they wouldn’t post it in exchange for $150. i don’t know how else to report them and their icloud is sa***********1@gmail.com. please help
It is a scam that has been reported many times. Block the email address or simply delete and ignore it. You can report the gmail address to Google here:
If you've received a suspicious email that appears to be from Apple, you can report it by forwarding the message to reportphishing@apple.com. This is Apple's official email address for handling phishing attempts.
How to Forward the Email:
On a Mac:
1. Open the Mail app and select the suspicious email.
2. From the menu bar, choose Message > Forward As Attachment.
3. Enter reportphishing@apple.com in the recipient field and send the email.
On an iPhone or iPad:
1. Open the Mail app and select the suspicious email.
2. Tap the Forward icon.
3. Enter reportphishing@apple.com in the recipient field and send the email.
Important Considerations:
Apple reviews these reports but may not respond to each submission.
If you believe your Apple ID has been compromised, change your password immediately.
Be cautious of emails requesting personal information or directing you to unfamiliar websites.
If you’re in the US please call 1-800-MY-APPLE or outside the US, consult the support articles below.
