    How to gain access to iCloud account via Amazon



    The author Mat Honan has detailed how attackers broke into his iCloud account and remotely wiped his iPhone, iPad and MacBook. In an article in Wired, Honan explains how the attackers used flaws in Amazon's and Apple's customer service lines to expose his iCloud password. iCloud customer support requires a user's residential address and the last four digits of the registered credit card to generate a new password.

    could be a solution

    Hi,

    This is the power of social engineering. I suggest if you want to use cloud services for sensitive data then better encrypt your data before uploading to any kind of cloud. so, that in case your account is compromised the data will remain encrypted. This method is time consuming but will increase level of security.
    Use complex passwords that are not easily guessed!
