iTunes store account hacked

And you can add me to the list.

They bought Rule the Sky for an ipad, changed my password, shipping or CC info, etc.

How do you contact Apple?? I've searched on the website but I haven't seen a way to email or call them to report stolen credit.

Nobody from Apple openly posts here. We are all users, like you.

How would you know if one of us are from the apple support? are you friends with them?

Chris CA,

I so sorry for being harsh and maybe so rude for words...maybe I am just upset...and thanks anyway!!

No not at all. and after contacting apple support I have confirmed that the transactions were not made on this account. Looks like I will have to contact the CC guys for this one.

I never downloaded any songs yet I still get a bill in my balance what the heck

to conact apple 1-800-MY-APPLE

Your post helped me resolve a similar issue. Thanks!

Considering it's more than likely Apple's lack of security that allowed someone to hack your account, I wouldn't be so quick to congratulate them on their service.

I got hacked $300.00 one week, and the next week $200.00. Then I got a gift card, and I only spent $7.00, and the next time I tried to get something, I only had $8.13 left

I can now be added to this. Some **creature** somehow got a hold of my debit card (it isn't on file with Itunes) and went and spent some $$$$ on, from what I see, apps. I noticed the transactions on my bank statement. No other weird or unauthorized transactions, just those from the Apple Itunes Store.

I emailed Apple to tell them and I actually got a reply. They asked for the amounts that were deducted from my account and then said they would refund it back to me. Funny thing was that apparently my Itunes account was not touched, they just somehow got my card details and went from there using another account(?).

Since then they have disabled any Apple account my card has been linked with and have put a hold on the card that was used. Mind you, I have not EVER used my card in the Itunes store. Once and only once did i use it when I had to purchase a software upgrade from the online store.

Unfortunately, my inital gut feeling was there is something going on internally, if you catch my drift. But I do not want to point the finger as there are too many dodgy people using the internet for this stuff.

I wasn't too worried about the money, it was probably a small amount compared to some on here, I still want it back of course, but i am a bit concerned about how much of my details they have accessed; name, address, etc. I have told my bank and they have closed the card that was used and the associated account to it and set up a new one.

Forgive my ignorance, (I have never had this happen to me before), is this supposed to be reported to the Police? Because from what I have read online and how many times this has happened, it doesn't look like it has/would do much. I guess for personal identity concerns it would/could be reported?

I did go into the police station today and ask somebody who was working there about it. She said because of the small amount it would only be minor and not to worry too much about it. Unfortunately, she was not a member of the police, just a volunteer working the front desk, so I am not sure if I should go by her word or not.

What have you guys/girls done?

I'm sorry. I don't know what you could do right now. It's such horrible timing too because nothing can be done as it's the Christmas period for most of us. Get on the phone to them a.s.a.p. though. It looks as though this is nothing new to them.

This really is starting to annoy me. This system is beginning to look more and more flawed everyday.

Hmmm. Unfortunate. I'm guessing i live in a different country to you. I have called a customer service line before and have also been given a number to call by somebody who works there to discuss this. I only emailed as i knew it was the xmas break, and thought it would be nice to have a "solution" in email rather than me trying to remember everything that was said. I guess i was lucky that my email was responded to so quickly.
