Illustration by Samar Haddad / The Verge Like Windows and macOS computers, Chromebooks handle file deletion in two steps. Initially, the files aren’t actually deleted, even though they disappear from view. They’re kept around in what is called the Trash, just in case you ever need them back, and then are wiped automatically after a certain amount of time. However, if you’re dealing with sensitive information or selling your device, you can also permanently erase them. ChromeOS, the operating system behind Chromebooks, actually gives you two file systems to think about: one in the cloud (in other words, Google Drive) and one that is local. Each of these systems handles deleted files slightly differently. And note that there’s no syncing between the trash folder for local files... Continue reading…

It's important to be cautious of suspicious texts and emails you receive from unknown senders, but threat actors are always finding new ways to trick victims. For instance, Broadcom recently warned about a new smishing (a combination of "SMS" and "phishing") campaign by hackers targeting iPhone owners in an attempt to steal their Apple IDs. As Broadcom explains, smishing attacks are usually conducted via email, but hackers also use malicious text messages to snatch credentials. One recent campaign involves hackers sending texts posing as Apple customer service, telling users that they need to log in to continue using their Apple IDs, and including a link to a malicious website. Here's what one of the malicious SMS messages looked like: "Apple important request iCloud: Visit signin[.]authen-connexion[.]info/icloud to continue using your services." That's clearly not an official Apple website, but if you weren't paying attention, you might tap it anyway just to make sure nothing was wrong with your iCloud. If you were to click through, you would find a seemingly genuine website that even features a CAPTCHA to add legitimacy. After that, users are sent to a webpage that looks like an outdated iCloud login template. Hopefully, at some point in the process, you will have realized your mistake, but if not, you could end up serving up your Apple ID details to hackers on a silver platter. Apple is rarely, if ever, going to ask you to confirm your login details via text message. Always be wary when you unexpectedly receive a text from an unfamiliar source, especially if the message includes a link, a phone number, or any urgent directions.
