I got text messages from iCloudreport regarding my lost iphone , are they scams?

I lost my iphone two month ago and I got a lot of emails from "Find my iphone" saying that my phone has been found in at least three other different countries. Today I received a text message from a unknown phone number saying that: "Find my iphone service: your iphone 6 64Gb Gray lost/stolen has been found. You can reclaim it now at: https://icloudreport.com/?imk=3544070.....(8 more numbers)...., Apple Inc. " I clicked the link, it led me to this address"http://icloudreport.com" it looks the same as icloud home page. I feel this is suspicious because I really did not put any hope on my lost iphone been found. Is this a scam?
I then rechecked the emails that I received in the past and I found that some early emails I received are from "[email protected]". The link in this email direct me to "losticloud.com"  while the most recent emails are from "[email protected]" and the link in this email direct me to "icloudreport.com" (which is the same as that in the text message). Is any of the email I got is scam? I remembered I did login through the emails so I'm a little worried.

It's all fake. If you had set up 'Find My iPhone' you could find the phone yourself, provided it's on, not wiped, and able to connect to a network. If you didn't set it up you can't locate the phone and neither can anyone else. The emails are phishing, trying to con you into giving away your login.

  • When I create a text message from my contact on my iphone 5, the contacts mobile number appears and not there name.  But when they respond to my text, is shows up as a new text message with there name.  How do I fix this?

    Double click the home button and swipe up the messages app to stop it, then open the app again. This pretty much completely stops the process and freshly opens it again, resolving problems at times. I have had this happen before as well on my iPad, I get a banner, check messages, and nothing new is there.
    If that doesn't work, close the app like suggested above, but then restart the phone by holding down the home and lock button for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears.

    You can't.
    The iPhone stores text messages in conversation format for starters.

  • How do I stop my text messages from appearing on my sons iPhone?

    I have an iPhone 4 and my so has an iPhone 5. My other son has an iPod touch. Text messages are showing up on our devices when we weren't texting each other. I don't want to see my sons messages and vice versa. I turned off the cloud and it doesn't help.

    I would guess you are probably sharing an apple ID account with your sons and it is using the imessage feature to send to all devices using that account. This article explains it, but you can shut it off from settings > messages.

  • TS2755 How do I copy text messages from my phone to my computer so they can be printed?

    There are a few conversations that I need printed from my phone. How do I go about doing that? Is there a way? Screen shots and printing isn't an option because I would be taking potentially hundreds of screenshots. I need a way to print them off in text form if possible.

    You need third-party software, like this:

  • How can I export text messages from Companion?

    Dear all!
    I have a number of old text messages which I would like to keep for the future. They are already erased from my tiny phone memory (I have an old SE "Cybershot"). So, right now they are only accessible via PC Companion. But: This only works if I connect my phone. If I launch the "text message synchronizing menu", the software asks me to plug in a phone, if I cancel, I'm back to main screen. However, I don't want to keep my old phone lying around for the next years just in case I want to browse through my old text messages some day.
    Is there a way to export my these old messages or can I find them on my hard drive?
    This might have been covered in some of the other threads, but I couldn't find a relevant post. I understand that "my Phone Explorer" allows to export text messages from the phone, but since mine are somehow hidden inside Companion, I am at a loss.
    Thanks for your help!

    Ahem, yes, that works   Didn't think of this possibility at all...
    You can save indivual messages or put all the highlighted ones into one single text document. It's not very comfortable to read, but it certainly does the job!
    Thank you very much!

    I CAN NOT RECEIVE TEXT MESSAGES FROM PEOPLE USING IMESSAGE

    On an iPhone your iMessages will go to your phone number.
    You can select another email to use on iPod or iPad.
    Go to settings
    Messages
    Send and receive
    Check your phone number and uncheck the common Apple ID you share so your messages will not go to other devices.

  • Upgraded to  new samsung galaxy s4 from a I phone 4 and I can't receive text messages from anyone with an I phone.

    I upgraded to a new Samsung Galaxy S 4 from an IPhone 4 and I can't get text messages from anyone who has an IPhone.

    Speak with an AppleCare advisor either over the phone or by chat.
    They will remove your phone number from the iMessage system. That's it! Otherwise after 45 days your phone nymber will automatically be removed from the system. Now or later, it's your choice.

  • How do you send text messages from mac to phones on yosemite?

    Just downloaded the new Yosemite and trying to send text messages from my mac to non iPhone users, how do you do this new feature?

    I think you need to wait on this for iOS 8.1.  Apple Messaging works now, but via SMS you need your phone linked.
