A new phishing scam is circulating online, falsely claiming that Apple’s upcoming foldable smartphone, the iPhone Duo, is available for preorder. Security experts are warning consumers to exercise extreme caution, as these fraudulent websites are designed to harvest sensitive personal and financial data. Apple has not officially opened preorders for any foldable device, with current reports suggesting no such product will be available before October 16 at the earliest. Users are advised to ignore any promotional links or social media advertisements claiming early access to the device. To protect against identity theft and data breaches, consumers should only interact with official Apple channels and verify product launch information directly through the company's website. If you encounter such a site, do not enter any personal information and report the link to relevant cybersecurity authorities to help prevent further victimization.
