How does the phishing app know my apple ID email address already?
- mmacvicarprett 9y agoAFAIK there is no way to obtain the apple id being used, as it would work as an excellent cross-device persistent identifier. However many people would just use their email address which you could get asking them to register, connecting with facebook and other legitimate use cases.
- balls187 9y agoI thought that too, but further in the article, it explains some official dialogs don't have the AppleID. One way to get the email: At the start of the phishing app, ask the user to enter in their AppleID, then store it. Sometime later, present the user asking for their AppleID password.
