Reports for (866) 895-4744
I received a message (text) from this number. The heading said "Apple Approval Notice". Like report #75f93 they stated the "Apple iCloud I'd was recently used at "APPLE STORE - CA" for $143.95, paid by Apple Pay Pre Authorization." It goes on like the other report. I called the number but hung yup when I heard several clicks in the phone which, to me, represented the phone was being transferred several times while it was ringing. I then checked the phone number on the internet, which I should have done first. The internet said It belonged to Herbalife, Inc in Torrance, CA.
Received a message (text) from this number. The heading said "Apple Approval Notice". Like report #75f93 they stated the "Apple iCloud I'd was recently used at "APPLE STORE - CA" for $143.95, paid by Apple Pay Pre Authorization." Wanted me to call or click link. Nope. This is a scam.
I went on Apple website to confirm no charges to my account and there were none. Besides, Apple would not threaten to not refund or help you if this is fraud.

Same as 75f93. Called the number & it came back with a recording saying they weren't available to take my call. Said to call back between 8AM & 5PM. I was calling just before noon Central time.
Said they were Apple and that a large charge preauthorization at a CA apple store had been made asking me to call this number to verify the charge. They also stated that if I did not call I would not be eligible to reverse the charge later. The sender did not have an apple email address. Email came through message app.
