The Apple Card has not yet arrived in Spain. Thank goodness because we have known that although it is a card with extensive security measures, It has not been spared that the friends of others have managed to get their users to report suspicious expenses.
Although it is a card that lacks numbering, as we are used to, it has not prevented has been the protagonist of different types of fraud.
Apple Card is vulnerable like any other card
The Apple Card, for now, has only been launched in the entire US. Although there are indications of that will soon arrive in Europe, there is still no definitive news on this fact.
US citizens can access this card if they request it first and second, if they meet the minimum conditions, especially in the economic plane.
The implementation of the Apple Card has been quite good and this has generated that those who like to spend other people's money, have gotten to work:
Some users have stated that they have cloned your Apple Titanium card. Others that the fraud has been carried out through Apple Pay, because they never used the physical card.
So we have the clear example of a cloning of the magnetic stripe.
The most worrying thing is access to data through Apple Pay. Apple's ultra-secure payment platform. At the time of the launch of this gateway, the company stated that Apple Pay uses a specific number and a unique transaction code that is not repeated.
The only explanation we can think of is that the company in charge of issuing the Apple Card, Goldman Sachs, has trafficked with user data to third companies.
Now the question that scares us the most Apple users. Could it have been Apple itself who sold this data?
Apple boasts of being a company very committed to users and their personal data. We raised that question and would like to read your comments on how this fraud could have happened.
I anticipate that if you are thinking that the problem is with the establishment, in its system of reception and treatment of payments, there is a question to answer. What about the CVV number, which is supposed to be random in every transaction?
