Identity Theft

How did my daughter close her acct. with us. Steal our Apple ID and transfer our data to her new device? We have been harassed for months. It took us 5 months for Apple to give us an Apple ID to purchase a app after she stole the one she created for us. Help!

Stolen Apple ID and password My wife phone was stolen, the phone was hacked and the thief got access to her Apple ID and password, the thief was able to change, both ID and password, along with all reference to my wive’s information. My kids phones that were liked to my wive’s Apple account were deleted. And the thief got access to all information in there phone and in the cloud. I was approached by the hacker though messaged from my wive’s facebook account to my personal FB account, requesting USD 1500 for gaining control of my wife’s apple account back again. How can a I gain control to my Apple account if something like this happens? How? what are preventive measures to have if something like this happens?
