New Smartphone Scam Alert: “Cloud Storage Full”

[mendez]

A fast-spreading scam is tricking thousands with fake “Your Cloud Storage Is Full” alerts.
The message looks legit — your name, photo count, urgent warnings — but once you tap the link, you’re pushed to pay a fake $1.99 “upgrade fee.”

That tiny payment?
It steals your credit card or PayPal info instantly.

Trend Micro reports a 531% spike in these attacks in one month.
If you get a storage warning by text, never click it.
Always check inside your real cloud app.

Double-check before tapping anything — simple clicks cause big losses. ️
