New iTunes phishing emails

recieved an email today that has been confirmed as a phishing scam.
email stated that I had purchased a football app for roughly 9.95 and to cancel the purchase I was to forward my credit information. PLEASE warn all friends and family of this. Apple does not email customers anything other then reciepts from itunes, confirmation emails or support emails. Apple never asks you about your credit information UNLESS your identity has been verified OVER the phone during a call YOU placed to their support team,
Apple takes security very seriously and would like all customers to forward possible phishing emails to

  • Itunes phishing email

    Just got a new type of 'phishing' email supposedly from iTunes, with subject "ID: 63168614".  Knew this was spam/phishing as the link to View Message was not anything connected to apple (although the reply to mail was an apple.com address).
    Looks like this:

  • My old email account was disabled and I can't remember my password - how can I reset my password or move $ to a new itunes/email account?  It seems I must have mis-typed my information because I can't answer the security questions correctly...

  • HT5622 My new iTunes account keeps telling me that my account is not yet verified.  But when I click on a verification email in the verification email I receive, it says that my new apple id _has_ already been verified.  I'm so confused.

    My new iTunes account that I created for work keeps telling me that my email address is not yet verified.  So I send a verification email to my main (another) email address, and then when I get a verification email to that address, it says that my email address is already verified.

    You can resend the verification email by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address.

  • Can I change my email address and open a new itunes account on a different computer?

    Is it possible to open a new iTunes account with my new email address then use a different computer to sync my iPhone 4?

    Sure, but ALL of the iTunes content currently on your phone will first be erased if you do...that's all as in all.

  • I have been trying to recover or reset my password, but the reset email never comes, so I can't change my password. I tried to open a new itunes account to assign my iphone 4 to, but it always defaults to the old itunes account?

  • Why is it taking so long to receive my confirmation email for my new iTunes account?

    I just turned 18 today, and got a new iPad 2. I have completed all the registration questions to get a new iTunes account, but the confirmation email has not arrived in over 5 hours! Any suggestions?

    Yes I think it might take awhile, 5 hours is not too long, but I know what you mean about usually getting confirmation emails right away.. I can't recall how long it took me to recieve my confirmation email, as I registered years ago.  It could come at anytime.  You will get it soon.  If I were you, I wouldn't be worried.  I'd just give it more time.

  • HT202667 I would like to open a new itunes account with an existing email

    I would like to open a new iTunes account using an existing email address. How can I do that?

    Hi,
    Thanks for providing more information on what you're trying to accomplish.  If you want to create an Apple ID, the email cannot be associated with a pre-existing Apple ID account.  Why are you trying to create another Apple ID?  If you just want to change your Apple ID, you can simply change the primary email account.
    Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Alex H.

    Hi
    This does not work.
    I originally had to have Apple disable my original account, which has caused multiple problems:
    1. Unable to play Purchased content with my new .me account.
    2. Unable to update apps on my iphone using my .me account.
    Apple support say that they cannot merge the accounts which leave me with a problem.
    1. Unable to play Purchased content with my new .me account unless I repurchase the content.
    2. Unable to update apps on my iphone using my .me account unless I repurchase the content.
    All I wanted to do was change my email address, but in doing so I had to change my Apple ID and this is where the problem lies. Can ANYONE please help me?

    very frustrated iphone user !!

    Changing devices is no reason to create a new Apple ID.
    All content purchased from iTunes is permanently linked to the Apple ID it was purchased with.
    To update apps purchased with the old ID, you MUST sign in with that Apple ID.

  • My childs ipod and my ipad have the same email address and itunes ID how do I stop both devices duplicating everything, change email address or set up new itunes account?

    my childs ipod and my ipad have the same email address and itunes ID how do I stop both devices duplicating everything, change email address or set up new itunes account?

    On each device go to Settings> iTunes and App store> Turn off automatic downloads of Music, Apps and Books.  Now a purchase will only go to the device from which it was ordered.
