Thanks for sharing your story! It is very important to get these stories as well, someone who has 20 years in tech so close to getting scammed..

You did the correct thing and kept track of the url etc. on an offday you might not have been so vigilant.

That's just made me think of something else about the day. Totally coincidental, but earlier in the day I was looking into what permission the Microsoft Company Portal App had on unmanaged Android and iOS devices for a concerned user.

Then I got the email from Apple support and was like WTF‽ Then I realised it was to my private email and went, damn! How's that timing.
