Fraudulent Use of Debit Card to purchase through Apple

All of my suggestions were meant to be. Sorry you did not appreciate the post, but it contained nothing but facts.

As I said, we are not Apple employees. And your issue is financial and/or bank card fraud. That is way beyond the scope of these technical forums. As volunteers, we help with technical problems using your Apple devices. We do not and cannot function as advocates, legal help, or anything similar. Besides, that would violate the ToU.

FWIW, asking online strangers about personal and critical fraud and/or legal problems is not a good way to get help. You should be in contact with professionals.

Good luck. Since you do not appreciate my efforts, this is my last post.

Let me preface by saying that there is absolutely nothing we can do to help. We are other users. We do not work for Apple and the ToU do not allow such conversations since they have nothing to do with a technical question. But.....

First, you really should check your account activity daily; that helps finding such things before they add up to this much.

Second, never use a debit card for any online purchases because you have no legal recourse. With a credit card you are usually only liable for $50 or so, but with a debit card, purchase amounts are immediately withdrawn and no one is obligated to reimburse you except the criminal(s).

Third, have you told your bank that they need to issue a new debit card immediately (and cancel the current one)? If you haven't, that should have been your first move.

Additionally, you should change ALL passwords; use very difficult ones (write them down somewhere where you can find them if needed).

Lastly, you can try to hire professionals who may find out who made the purchases and go after them with a civil suit or contact your homeowner's insurance to see if they will cover the theft.
