Why do you invite strangers to share your photo album?

Because strangers use the function of iOS and Apple to share photo albums, add your ID to his address book, then create a shared photo album and send you an invitation. This is a kind of junk advertisement, and it is also a means for fraudsters to commit fraud.

Once you are familiar with the above shared photo album function, you should understand that as long as someone knows your AppleID, that is, the email address where you registered your AppleID, he can add you to his address book, then create a shared photo album and send you an invitation.

Careful you may have found that the name of the shared photo album is usually chess or gambling sites's address, so that when you receive the message, you can see this website and visit their website, thus achieving the promotion effect.

If you agree to the invitation, they can further add promotional pictures to the shared album, and your device can also see the photos, which is also for the purpose of promotion.

Because most of us use QQ email to register AppleID, QQ email is relatively easy to be obtained by scammers, so strangers will send us invitations. Generally speaking, the other party's main purpose is promotion, which is junk news to us.
