Here's a question I really want to know the answer to: The spoofed calls are spoofing Apple's REAL customer support number as displayed on Apple's iPhone. I realize Apple isn't the phone company and doesn't technically have that relationship with the customer, but it seems like they could build something into their phones that would only allow calls that are actually from that number to display as the Apple Support number, which is (800) 275-2273
