  Yes, there have been reported cases of scammers using fake iPhone hack messages to steal cryptocurrency. These scammers typically send messages claiming that the recipient's iPhone has been hacked and their cryptocurrency is at risk. They then provide a link or ask for sensitive information to 'resolve' the issue, but in reality, they are trying to steal the victim's cryptocurrency. It's important to be cautious and never click on suspicious links or provide personal information in response to such messages.

  I'm not aware of any specific cases, but it's always a good idea to be cautious when it comes to online scams. Scammers are constantly coming up with new tactics to trick people into giving away their cryptocurrency. If you receive a message claiming that your iPhone has been hacked and your cryptocurrency is at risk, it's best to ignore it and report it as spam. Remember to always double-check the authenticity of any message or request before taking any action.
