It's pretty much common sense, but if you receive a suspicious link from someone on your iPhone, you shouldn't click on it.Â
There's a new prank going around that is driving iPhone users that fall for it mad. What will happen is the link will send you to a website called crashsafari.com, which causes your iPhone or iPad to heat up significantly and then be forced into a reboot.
Right now, lots of jokers are posting shortlinks to 'crashsafari․com'. The link will reboot your iPhone. Watch out. pic.twitter.com/3mZby5Xpo2

Although there are no lasting effects, it's still annoying AF, so just be aware of what you're clicking on.
