Credit Card Info Hacked and used for Non-Skype Pur...

On July 19 my credit card info that is held by Skype for automatic credit purchases was hacked and used to make a non-Skype purchase of $565.27. I only use this card for Skype.
Fortunately my credit card company has credited me for this fraudulant purchase.
Has anyone else had this problem?

Apple cannot tell you directly, assuming that the charges were indeed really from the iTunes Store. It's quite possible that they weren't; many fraudsters are sending fictitious "iTunes" charges directly to people's credit card/bank accounts. Your credit card company may be able to request information from Apple if they wish to pursue the matter, but most likely the card company will just refund you the fraudulent charges and cancel and reissue your credit card.
Regards.

    To remove it from your account, tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account  - that should give you a payments link on your account's page from where you can change remove/change your payment details.

  • HT1918 How do you take credit card info off to use a iTunes card credit?

    I do not want my debit card used for purchases, so I bought an iTunes card. However now it says that I have the credit but is still requiring my debit card to be verified. How do I fix this and can make purchases by only using my iTunes gift card?

    Can you chose the None method for payment?

  • Forgot my password,email has been recently deactivated because it was hacked and used for spam

    Hi,
    I recently had my email shut down because i was a victim of spam hacks and I just found out that I actually dont remember my password correctly. I know my secret questions answer because it sends the passord to the email succesfully,but its useless in this case.
    Is there any way i can retrieve my account details and transfer it to a different email(my new one)?
    Can i remake a new Blackberry ID?I never bought anything and dont have any credit card details on my account so I dont care if i lose it,but I was wondering if the account has anything to do with the actual phone itself.
    Thank you in advance and I hope you can help me out in some sort of way,
    Kyriacos Makris

    iTunes uses your credit card even on free downloads to verify your account and to make sure you have a payment method in case you use in-app purchases.

  • Trying to set download apps...says it needs my credit card info...I put it in....but then it won't take it because it says I need to enter my zip code.  I live in Canada and have a postal code, not a zip code.  Help

    I am trying to set up my new Iphone 4 and download apps.  I made an Apple Id which is all good.  But when I try and enter in my credit card info it keeps asking for my Zip code and state.  I live in Canada not US.  I changed the phone to Canadian but it still keeps asking for it and won't let me put in my right information which in turn won't let me download any apps.  Can anyone help?

    Postal & Zip codes are same.  Just enter postal code without space.  It will accept.

    Yes you can remove it. However, as Forum member Katrina S discovered, you cannot remove an expired credit card. So first update to a valid credit card. Then the "None" button will again appear, and you can remove the card altogether.

    How to reset credit card info to buy credits for games cause I think I used too many cards it's not letting me purchase credits for games

    iTunes never asks me about or talks billing information no matter whether I download a purchased app or a free app.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and then tap View Apple ID. Enter your password. Go down to Payment Information and tap that to edit or remove your credit card information.

  • HT5622 Do you have to enter credit card info to set up an apple id acct? even if I am only using for free downloads and never intend to purchase anything?

    Do you have to enter credit card info to set up an apple id acct? even if I am only using for free downloads and never intend to purchase anything?

    If you have already created the Apple ID, yes.  You can add the card - it will authorize $1.00 (USD) which will be released.  At that point, you can then change the payment method to None - Then done.
    If you would rather create a different appleID without a credit card, follow the instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

  • Received a email from Apple stating that my Apple ID was used for a purchase not on my device. It had a link to cancel purchase but asked for my email and password which I gave then it wanted my credit card info! I didn't give that,what should I do?

    Received a email from Apple stating that my Apple ID was used for a purchase not on my device. It had a link to cancel purchase but asked for my email and password which I gave then it wanted my credit card info! I didn't give that,what should I do? Do you think this is just a way to get my credit card information?

    It sounds like a phishing email. You can't "cancel" purchases. You've now given them your AppleID and password, so you should immediately change your password to something new and very secure.
    Also watch out for suspicicious activity on your account.
