That means your charge account was hacked. You have become a victim of identity theft. The card was used at Apple to obtain access to your account information stored with Apple.
Immediately contact all your credit card companies and cancel your current card. Have them issue you new cards with a different account number, etc. Change all you online passwords. Report the incidence to your local police. I would also talk with your bank(s) to assure those accounts are still secure and untouched.
