Your iPhone Gets Stolen. Then the Hacking Begins

Researchers at Infoblox uncovered a thriving underground marketplace—operating on the web and Telegram—selling pay-per-use iPhone unlocking tools and phishing kits used to take over stolen devices. The investigation linked more than 10,000 phishing domains to the activity and observed a 350% rise in traffic last year; services are inexpensive (often under $10), enabling many buyers to profit from reselling unlocked phones or accessing victims' bank and crypto accounts.
