Billions of Dollars Looted using Apple Watch. We’ve heard a lot about the dangers of using an Apple device. But it is easy to see that when the same device is the cause of the disaster rather than the threat, it is not convenient. Last year in the United States itself, a citizen was robbed of ০০ 500,000 using an Apple Watch.
Although people did not know the details of the incident at that time, recently, the incident has come up for discussion again. Most people who practice the subject agree on at least one thing: money laundering using Apple products has never happened before.
A report in the New York Post states that seven miscreants were involved in the money mentioned above robbery in the US state of Connecticut. After following the victim for a long time, the miscreants rob him. The gang hid an Apple Watch under the bumper in the victim’s car to facilitate the follow-up. Through this, they got information about the address and location of the victim and took money from him.
The incident details show that the miscreants first bought the Apple Watch and linked it to their own AT&T account. They then hid the watch in the bumper of the victim’s car. The incident happened in January 2020, when the Apple Watch was the only suitable device to track someone. Apple Airtag has not come to the market yet.
Now, after listening to everything, if the question arises in the reader’s mind, how exactly is it possible to track someone using Apple Watch? So let’s say this is very easy to do using the Find My app on the iPhone. Users can also use the Find My app to prevent Apple Watch theft or loss.
“Using the Find My app, the Apple Watch, which has GPS and cellular features, provides information about its location using GPS, a reliable WiFi or cellular network connection,” Apple said in a statement.
