That reads as a scam message to me @DP046 , you will note how they want you to click a button which will probably direct to a website thst you do not want to be on. If you received this via email then mark it as spam so it gets deleted.

This was the message below supposedly from Apple security I didn't click on it but now I am getting messages saying my IP address is outside of the Uk ( it isn't and shouldn't be)

@DP046 I completely agree with @caesarome that is a supsicious message and looks like an attempt to get your personal details
I'd wager both the connection protection button and app store are fake sites.

Hi yes I realised straight away it may be a scam so I didn't click on anything but the problem now is that I am getting messages saying my ISP,/IP address is outside the uk and this is what I need help with. Thanks
