My Apple ID was hacked, how do I retrieve it?

My boyfriends phone was stolen by his cousin and they hacked his email and changed the Apple ID and password, how do I retrieve it?

First of all cancel your Credit card(s) used with your AppleID to prevent further transactions, if you have not done so. Then call the Apple support phone number for your country: Here is a list -

And tell the operator that you urgently need to talk to the account security team.
And report the theft to the authorities.

My apple ID was hacked - how do I delete it entirely so I can open a new one????

i got an email saying that 'fruit ninja' was purchased on my apple ID account - I didn't purchase it so i followed the instructions to change my password.
when i logged in my account was either hacke by someone or somehow confused with someone elses.... my email address was tied to someone else's adddress, phone number, credit card etc - I just want to delete my account and start over, but i can't figure out how to delete. and of course there is no tech support for this... even though they require my credit card on file......

Of course there's Tech Support for this:

Thanks, I appreciate the help. I think this is one of the problems Apple is creating by changing the OS so often. I had fomer colleagues at [a major aerospace contractor] who told me that so many original files were ultimately lost because of the deadly change in the "Save As" operation that they are now afraid of every OS update. Apple has badly damaged their support base with that very prominent company (they won't update now until they've fully examined and understand changes in the pre-conditioned nature of OS computer functions), and they are a whole lot less enthaled with Mac-related equipment/software. Can't blame them, I too used orginal files that way (as easy-to-use templates), and lost some important files before I realized what was happening (to late to revert). Companies should not have to retrain employees each time an OS gets an update, it's can be very expensive several different ways. They learned a painful lesson with that one. And because I'm now retired and don't use multiple devices, I need iCloud like I need a hole in the head... but I'm told there's no way to keep Apple out of my computer. Fortunately, because of major problems when initially installing Mountain Lion, one hold-over of the hardware/software damage I experienced was that iCloud can no longer access my computer even though everything else is working fine again. That was the only "good luck" I had as a result of that expensive nightmare.

Contact Support in your country, as long as they can confirm your id and that it's your account then they should be able to get you access to it : Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security
If your country isn't on that page then try this form to contact Support : https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

My apple ID was hacked and a game by GodGame Inc was bought and installed. When I try to report a problem about this transaction, the link automatically sends me to the apple store support. The application is bugged. Please help.

thanks for your response roaminggnome. I changed my password immediately after it happened and I have contacted i tunes to let them know of this dillemma.
The I-tunes credit was a promotional thing by Apple to buy their laptop. So I didn't pay for the i-tunes credit in the first place. Do you think my bank will be able to reinburse Itunes credit then? I will ask support when they get back to me.

Apple id was hacked and deleted

My apple ID was hacked. They deleted/changed my apple id and now my icloud, my contacts, and my Notes on my iphone 4s are gone. What should I do?

I've just had this same problem (password didn't work, iForgot emails not coming to me, my birthdate and also all security questions all changed). I'm in the UK and have tried to contact Apple and OMG what a nightmare. Is there any way I can email them? Each time I try to do the call it just keeps saying 'I'm sorry, this is not available at this time. Try again'.
Things I've done so far:
- changed my Apple ID to another email address from the recover process
- changed all my security questions and changed my password
- changed my ID and passwords on my iPad and iPhone for iTunes and App Store (although it's now let me download and charged me for an album I didn't want without asking me to put in any Apple ID or password - ??)
My iCloud is just screwed now: I can't get to anything to change the Apple ID and it just says 'everything will be deleted from my iPhone/iPad if I proceed'. I don't want to proceed when I can't get in to that iCloud Apple ID anymore as I may never be able to recover everything if I don't know that password any more.
Have all my pictures, etc, been compromised on iCloud? Should I change my bank card/bank security?
Why can't I just email someone at Apple re reporting this rather than phone? (it's 3.30am here at the moment, I really don't want to be on the phone!). Any help advice you can give would be appreciated :o)

My Apple ID was hacked, disabled, enabled and now it is disabled again.

A couple weeks ago my Apple ID was hacked and then disabled. I got it enabled, changed the password. It now disabled again. Can you help me sort this out?

no we can't. We're users here. You'll need to contact Apple for support. You can find a link at the bottom of the page in the iTunes store.

Hi sandys98368807,
Do you see any unusual activity on your system?
If you are worried about your Adobe account, i would recommend you to change your Adobe password as soon as possible.
Please let me know if you have any other query or need any further assistance.

You should get Apple involved in sorting this out. Start at this site:

Your Apple ID can be handled through iTunes.

Apple ID was hacked but Express Lane only offers, "I'll Chat Later?"

I can't talk to anybody regarding my Apple Store ID being hacked this morning. An email states I can only chat later.? Apple's technical support under Apple Care can't do anything about iTunes support? What the? Who can I talk to?

Now I can't even follow the two live chat threads I actually got at 7:00 am this morning (no more chat available immediately). They changed my ID for me, then I verified it at my 2nd email address, went back into my account, and after having cancelled the credit card information (they claim no one can see anything but the last 4 digits), and now I can't even revert back to using my original login email address because it says someone else owns that email, or else that email has been voided or suspended. And, who will reverse the charges that Thief X rang up before I found out what happened?
No one there even can tell me if the Apple ID was hacked/phished by a fake iTunes or Apple App Store screen asking me to reenter the iTunes user ID/password, or not! Talk about breach of security.
Not being able to resolve this via either Live Chat or Phone call is preposterous. This is an event that could be litigated in court, I'm sure.

If you have an iCloud account, change your AppleID and iCloud passwords immediately. That will keep a thief from connecting and deleting your iCloud backups. When you get a new iPhone, if from an Apple store, the genius bar staff can download the information you have in iCloud and restore it to your new iPhone.
