After India, Apple sends threat alerts to iPhone users in Armenia

Last week, Apple sent threat alerts to the leaders of several opposition parties on their iPhones. The alert sent to the Indian politicians said: “State-sponsored attackers may be targeting your iPhone”. The Cupertino-based tech giant has sent similar notifications to select iPhone users in Armenia. These alerts also warned their users that “state-sponsored attackers” may be targeting them.

According to a report by the Armenian publication Media.am (spotted by AppleInsider), the alerts were sent on the same day Apple sent similar notifications to specific Indian politicians. However, in each of these cases, the company alerts stress that it could be a false alarm, but there is reason to suspect that the user’s iPhone has been targeted.
