Watch out for text messages 'from Apple' claiming that your Apple account has been frozen and you should go to a site to verify. It is a total scam and you will install malware or give away security details if you open it. Delete the message and only ever go direct onto an Apple website.

It looks real, but do not be fooled!!

Good advice for ALL emailed links, and in fact emails these days don't use the reply links in Emails, type in the actual link or email address you want to go to.

Frozen chunks of apple are great for chilling cider without watering it down!
