Apple ID account was hacked; all details was changed.
I received an email from Apple stating my recent purchases.
"Your Apple ID was just used to purchase Fat Face Booth from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID."
Now, I didn't purchase ANYTHING.
So like any normal circumstances, I'd change my password and all is good.
BUT I WAS WRONG.
This email was sent Monday, and I read it Wednesday. When I got to the reset password page, my password was already well.. not my password. so I couldn't proceed. I thought maybe I just forgot about it and so I chose the first option... I'll just ask them to send me an e-mail to retrieve my password. I waited and no e-mail was sent. Huh. That's weird. So I chose the second option, retrieve password through details. The first question was when was my birthday. I put it in and the results were... my birthday was INCORRECT. Now, I clicked the previous button in the hopes of trying the first option and the email was just delayed but it NEVER CAME. I couldn't possibly forget my birthday. That's absurd. And the fact that no email was sent to me means my email address is no longer in use.
How can I reset my password, when it has already been changed?
How can I retrieve my password when my e-mail and details, such as birthday, have been changed as well?
Now, I'm not worried much since I didn't place my credit card details and I chose "none" as my billing option but my billing address is still there. I want to delete my account but I've read that it's not possible.
What do I do? I want to cancel that account.

I Have followed all the steps and still cant remove iCloud to my existing account and add to the new one, the old email account was changed a year ago and cant get that email plus the password don't work please HELP!
Welcome to the Apple community.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

I got an email saying my apple icloud account was recently cancelled..
I got an email saying my apple icloud account was recently cancelled, but I didnt do anything to cancel or change it. Since then computer is running slower and my internet is not working. what could be wrong with it?
Please help!It is more than likely a phishing scam to trick you to submit personal information .
If you clicked on anything in the email and submitted any information, I strongly suggest you log into your Apple ID account and change your passwords.
If you did nothing, good, and delete the email.

to create apple US account i followed all the steps including none in the payment option. i dont have US address how should i fill the fields.
You need to be in a country to use its store - if you are not in the US with a US billing address then you cannot use the US store.
From the US store's terms of use :
The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance. -

When i added my credit card to itunes account, my account was changed €1.98? Why?
That is to verify your card and that it works. The charge will be reversed and will not appear on your bill. If it does, contact iTunes support in your country.

Somehow the country associated with my account was changed to China. I did not make this change. My credit card information needs to be updated but the system will not let me update either my credit card information or the country back to the United States. My updated credit card information is not accepted because the country is China. It will not allow me to change the country until the credit card information is changed. Help!!!
This exact thing has happened to me. Did you get it resolved? If so, how??

Name on my account was changed??
So this is a very weird issue that I have never seen before and have no idea how to fix I don't think I can fix it on my end.
Okay so I ordered from bestbuy.com during the early black friday deals and my mother wanted something for herself and gave me the points.
So I purchased the item with her credit card and everything went fine, but then a couple days later the name on my bestbuy.com account says her name and not mine anymore.
I just got an email today saying I reached Elite plus status and my new card would be arriving soon, but it was addressed to my mom instead of me and came to my email address.
So I don't have any idea what is going on and I was hoping someone can help me.
Thank you for your time,
CurtisHi Curtis,

A My Best Buy™ account is intended to be used by a single member, and a member is not to share their account, points, certificates or benefits with anyone else. The name change you appear to be experiencing with your My Best Buy™ account is another reason why an account is to be used by a single member.
With that being said, I should have no problem making any needed corrections if I can confirm that the account was originally in your name when it was created. Please send me a private message with the below information and I will make sure everything is up-to-date. You can send a private message by clicking on the blue button in my signature.

How can I log into my old game center on my iPhone when the email address used is the same for the other?
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
