I contacted Apple to update the address associated with my developer account. They asked me to prove my new address by providing –

• A photocopy of your valid (not expired) government-issued identification showing the new address
• A recent change-of-address document filed with your local postal service
• A document from your local registration office showing the new address
• A recent utility bill, bank statement, or a letter from a government agency that shows the developers name and new address

I deleted the email. I wonder how many incorrect addresses, phone numbers and emails they have.

So much for germaphobia.

I wonder what’s next.

Been spending my anti-social isolation learning Swift 5 and SwiftUI. I am about ten test apps in. Everything is just a little bit more convoluted than it should be. Having fun.

As many smart and talented people work from home for the first time, please be aware that there are people out there trying to exploit our new circumstances to compromise systems and data.

Please update your home anti-virus software and definitions. Make certain your operating system and applications are current.

Be particularly suspect of emails from unknown parties, from partners and co-workers that are out of the norm. Do not send data or funds without the same checks that exist when working from at your office.

Do not bring proprietary information on to you home system that you do not need. Delete any company data that you no longer need.

Remember, if something does not seem right, stop and think before you act. When in doubt ask.
