Apple ID

[Acis]

I've had a text saying my Apple ID has been restricted and asking me to visit a website to restore settings. I'm not aware of any reason why that should be the case, and if I received an email like that I'd be deleting it as spam. However, with a text it's obviously more difficult to detect whether it's coming from a dodgy source, and I did just wonder whether it could be anything to do with the What'sApp hacking.

Has anyone else had these, or can anyone throw any light?

It's probably spam. Ignore it.

Has your Apple ID been restricted? If it has, your text is legit. If it hasn't, your text is spam. I'm going to bet it's spam though.

This is a well known scam. I had one and just ignored it. Apple don't randomly delete people's IDs.

To be honest, I'm not sure how I'd find out if my ID has been restricted. Phone etc all working fine. Should I try iTunes or something?
