Howdy!
I don’t normally do this, but we all make mistakes .
While asking Vodafone for help . They sent 2 emails . All well and good. They advised me to check junk mail incase one was in there.
It was . Unfortunately I pressed a link on another email and immediately knew I made a mistake . I didn’t even look at the page as it loaded up . I came out of it and deleted my history for this morning . I didn’t reply or give any details out .
Am I in danger?
Please advise
Thanks

Thanks Debbie
It’s only the 2 nd time I looked into my junk mail folder for years .
It’s quite alarming the amount of stuff tha gets sent that you don’t generally see.
Thankfully I never gave out any details and they only have my email address .
Thanks again0 -

I agree Apple is good at sandboxing which is making their systems more secure, as they state
Sandboxing your app is a great way to protect systems and users by limiting the privileges of an app to its intended functionality, increasing the difficulty for malicious software to compromise your users’ systems
Apple will always push to make IOS more secure but there is will always be a chance of getting around security but yes you're 99.9% safe
