Someone hacks my account.

How can I get my Skype account back from the Hacker?

All you have to know to get into any online account, except for a very few, is the ID and password, so the iTunes Store is not particularly unusual. You need to take the same precautions you would with your bank account; make your password difficult to guess, change it regularly, don't use the same password on the iTunes Store that you use elsewhere, and don't give it to anyone else.
As to resetting the password, for someone else to do that, they would also need either to have hacked your email account so as to be able to receive the reset email or know the answers to your secret question, so it's not all that easy. 
If you have a better idea about how Apple can provide better security, though, you can submit it to Apple here:

But if you're really worried, don't keep your credit card information stored in your account. Remove it whenever you're through purchasing.
Regards

    someone hacked my account. Put her email like an alterante email and changed the security questions

    Take your phone (or whatever hacked device you believe you have), with proof of purchase receipt to your local Apple Store and see if they can help.

    Settings>general>resets>erase all content and settings.
    That will put it back to its out of the box state. Set it up with your own apple Id.

  • Someone hacked my account and used my $50.

    Someone hacked my iTunes account and used all my $50 except like $0.65 and I would really like it if Apple could replace my money.

  • Someone hacked my account

    How can I return my account

    Can you please expand upon the course of events that led to you labelling your account as having been "hacked"? We need to be able to make sure it isn't just another of those cases where someone has, and I know this sounds unbelievable that someone would be so stupid but it happens, knowingly given their login details to someone else, either to Game Share or to "Gain Free Content", then missidentified the events that unfolded as "being hacked" after said person/people have then used the information they were willingly handed to change the login details.

  • HT201303 What if someone hacks my account and buys apps without my permission

    Hello,  I was just resetting my itunes password because I simply forgot it.  I'm suprised it was quite easy... a little too easy.
    All you need to have is a know someones email address and password attached to a itunes account and sneak around it.  Reset the itunes password with it and buy loads of crap that I will never otherwise buy.  Only to see a large bill on my credit card soon after with their ios device.
    Is there any security measures to prevent this or get my money back if my itunes account is hacked and garbage apps purchased?

  • When I try to access the Apple store to install a game on my Iphone3g, another person's email address comes up on the page that asks for my password. Has someone hacked my account? It won't accept my password because it's someone else's ID!!!

    When I attempt to install a game on my I phone 3g, another person's ID (email address) is on the little box where it asks for my password. It won't accept my password because it's not my ID. How can I get this person's ID off my phone?  Have I been hacked or something??

    Just sign put of that account and into yours.

  • I need a little help accessing my mail on my mac and my iphone 4s after changing my password on Yahoo as someone hacked my account. I can't get mail, I just get Password error every time :(

    Hi people,
    A little stumped for what to do here... I had my Yahoo hacked, changed my yahoo password (Yahoo is the account configured to 'mail' on both my mac and iphone)... however since changing my password I have found I can't access my mail on either with out it asking me to enter my password. When I do, it say's 'Password error'. Sometimes it re-directs me to the actual 'Yahoo' browser saying I need to verify my account, but basically I can't use the mail function on either device now! I know you may suggest deleting the account and re-installing it to each device and I feel this would probably work as well but (and this is the tricky bit)... all my NOTES are configured through Yahoo, only some are through icloud (which is odd). All notes are about 201, icloud about 77 and the rest on Yahoo and when I go to delete the account it says it will also delete all my notes :/ Now, I am a bit of a writer, and these notes are pretty sacred to me so losing them isn't an option. I don't want to lose them. Is there anything any one of you lovely peeps can suggest. It would be much appreciated.

    Yes, you have encountered Activation Lock (Find My iPhone Activation Lock - Apple Support). The only way that phone will ever be usable is if the owner the phone is locked to releases it (see: Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account - Apple Support). If you are lucky the phone is locked to the seller, so you can ask them to unlock it. If the seller is merely a middleman and the previous owner is not the seller it gets much more complicated. It's even possible that you bought a stolen phone, in which case you will never be able to use it and you should return it for a refund.

  • HT1918 Someone Hacked my account and now I have many charges on my credit card. How do I get to talk to support about this?

    My account seems to be hacked for I have over $200 in charges on my credit card that I didn't create - how can I get those stopped or cancelled and my money back?

    I had this happen, itunes won't do anything. You have to claim it through your credit card and change your itunes password. I was able to cancel some pending orders but itunes support was not able to help at all. It took them three days to respond. I was also able to change the shipping address on an order and send it back.

  • Seems like someone hacked my account

    There are playlist and songs I haven't played. Sometimes my music is stopped and other music begins. There were some other devices that were on my account which I deleted, but they are still accessing my account. It's annoying but I worry even more about billing information. Any ideas? I can't seem to find a way to contact Spotify about this.

    Hello  & welcome to the Community!

    Then proceed to change your accounts password.
