My screen froze up and told me to call the number, which I did... because it wouldn’t let me click anything else except the phone number. When they answered, it sounded all fuzzy until a few seconds later when I hear .. “thank you for calling Apple tech support this is Alex, how may I help you” with a faint Arabic accent, but I knew it didn’t take didn't sound professional at all so I hang up and realize that it’s maybe a scam.
About 1 minute later they call me once on the 582 number and I hang up right away thinking it’s them. As soon as I hung up my phone is ringing again from the same number... I hang up again and got left with a voicemail saying... “hello?...”hello”. I blocked both numbers.
