My iCloud account has been hacked

I think my iCloud account was hacked this morning. I went to log in and iCloud refused my password was refused and I noticed an email from Apple iCloud in Chinese. I have now reset the password, but just as a heads up to the wider Apple community that it looks as though yet another Chinese hack is under way. So a simple question to Apple, how can we the user community be assured that our accounts are secured and not subject to ongoing attacks?

Nobody in these forums represents Apple, but they publish some recommendations for users regarding ID choice at

Welcome to the Apple community moonlight94.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare (or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

My usual iCloud account has been locked out. I tried the email link - didn't receive an email. So I created a new Apple ID with another email but now I can't access my other Apple ID Mail, etc..

My usual Apple ID/iCloud account has been locked out. I tried the email link - didn't receive an email. So I created a new Apple ID with another email but now I can't access my other Apple ID Mail, etc.. How do I get the Apple ID I want to use working again? Help.

Hi JkeeneSoldano,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
To regain access to your Apple ID, try to reset your password using one of these methods:
Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
From:
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
If you need to use the email verification method but don't receive the reset email, see this link for more help:
If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support
Best Regards,
Jeremy

HT201303 Hi my iTunes account has been hacked by someone in Canada, they downloaded a game called "Game of War fire age" the game is free but the in app purchases are up to £69.99 each time for gold I am very concerned about the security of ITunes at this

My iTunes account has been hacked via Canada according to an email from apple some one in china tried a few weeks ago but failed.
I changed my password a couple time now but it seems that someone has hacked it and downloaded a free game called "game of war fire age" as I said its a free game but the in app purchases can be up to £69.99 per purchase of gold?
This is a worrying thought that my account has been compromised and I am unsure of what to do about it.
I would like to open a new account but would I be able to transfer all my purchases over to a new account any advice is welcome many thanks for your time.

i recieved the same email with the same game and it also stated the purchase was from canada i have revieved a few other as well and am concerned i have changed my password a few times now but i still revcieve emails and am very worried. i recieved the email near the date this question had been put up
however i do not know how they are downloading apps as my credit card details need verification when i download anything , any help would be much appreciated.

Apparently my Spotify account has been hacked last night and the password & email address have been changed so I can't reset my password. My hacked account is "mrouhiai" I created this new account "mrouhiai_2" to post this message to this forum. I have never shared my account with anyone, and my email has not been compromised. I can prove my identity in many ways if necessary. This new account I've just created is using my old email from the original account. You should be able to verify these details easily. Case #: 03363771

Same here, today somebody changed my account norre01 e.mail address. Now it is [email protected] and I can't reset my password anymore (I tried, didn't got any e-mail). I still can access my account through Facebook login I changed my FB password, their security check didn't find any abnormal activity on my FB account.I sent also message to Customer Support, but probably it takes time. Kind regards PS! Off-topic question; is it possible to recover people/artist whom i following list?

HT4865 My mac.me account has been hacked. What do I need to do?

I have received the following message notification report. Since I never sent the email I guess my account has been hacked. I have changed my password but assume this isn't enough to protect my account. Thanks for your prompt advice

That does not mean your account has been hacked.
All it means is that some spammer has attached your email address to some email he sent. That is incredibly easy to do (just change the From: address) and does not require access to your account.
Spammers do this all the time. There's nothing you can do about it. Just delete the bounced emails and it will subside when the spammers move on to other email addresses.

My account has been hacked, and I have been charge...

I have just found out my old skype account has been hacked within the last few days. The hackers added two pakistan subscriptions and my debit card attached to my account was charged $49.99 and $29.99. I immediately cancelled the subscriptions and changed my password. What else should I do, and how do I get my debit card charges reversed? Please help. This is very frustrating. Thank you.

HT3702 my account has been hacked.. what should I do.. there are several charges that are not mine!!

my account has been hacked.. what should i do.. there are several charges that i did not do..

If you haven't already done so then change your account's password e.g. via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or http://appleid.apple.com
You can also contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

My account has been hacked, what can i do ?

My I tunes account has been hacked, the password has been changed and the contact email has been changed as well. What can I do ?

Then you may have to ask Apple to just shut down the account. Also let your bank know. Contact iTunes Support as well. Good luck
