Safari Script request that locks your iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch requiring the user to change passcode is NOT legitimate. It is a phishing expedition from a bad actor trying to get access to your device. If you run into this problem from a website you visit, here's how to get out of this lock-up. — PING!

Is there any way to run a trace to the source of the phishing code? Maybe send a similar problem their way?

All governments are pussys for not torturing the filth that releases this evil in public.

My mother had a pop-up problem with dk[something].com.

I was able to search for a solution on her iPad, and got the clear Safari instructions.

It came back the next day, and I did the clear Safari thing again, and also hit the advance settings website data clear.

Maybe that happened to me last night and this morning. The screen wouldn’t respond to touch last evening.
I let the ipad shut down.
Tried this AM and again, would not respond to touchscreen.
Ipad waited for me to slide the arrow to the right but since no response, it just shut down.
Went online, instructed to press both those buttons.
It worked. Yea !

I backup, to my iMac, using iTunes, every week, for every mobile device using the USB / Lightning connector. If the malicious Java Script comes after the most recent backup, would this not have been fixed by restoring?
