The buzz around iPhone X refuses to stop.

Apple launched its much-anticipated iPhone X models in the UAE on November 3 with fans lining up the previous night to get their handsets.

The company has issued a notification on their UAE website warning its customers to be careful of a scam asking users to make payments of taxes, hospital bills, bail money, debt collection, and utility bills over the phone. These scams are committed by multiple methods, including gift cards.

Here's how the scam works: The scamster calls the customer to urgently make a payment by purchasing iTunes gift cards from the nearest retailer. Once purchased, they are asked to pay by sharing the 16-digit code on the back of the card with the scamster still on the call.

The Apple website has warned users to avoid providing any numbers on the back of the gift care to an unknown person. Once shared, the funds will be gone to the scammer before you can complain to the Apple authorities.
