iTunes Store Account Hacked [big thread]
https://discussions.apple.com/message/12670235#12670235
I noticed unauthorized charges from Apple this weekend. Turns out
this has been going on and Apple is doing nothing. Some people have
lost over $1000. I notified Apple immediately and their system keeps getting
compromised. See above thread. This is rampant. So remove your credit
card off your iTunes/AppleID. Even gift cards are getting hacked and wiped.
Beware.
I have a really secure password, what is happening is, the hackers are using
OTHER Apple accounts they can get in, and then use YOUR credit card (but
cannot hack into your account details). Its a combination of ID's they can
hack, and ID's they can't get into but can use their card number.
They will go into the ID they can get into and change the personal details.
You will see a charge on your card but you won't be able to see what they
bought (that will happen on the other ID they take over and harvest).
The thread is 100 pages and goes from 2010-2012.
DO NOT *repeat* do not give Apple your credit card.
