I had unauthorized purchases on my itunes account for the following:
10 songs from this guy who I've never heard of - http://stantonlanier.com/ http://stantonlanier.com/
and
N.O.V.A. - Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance, v1.2.1, Seller: Gameloft (12+)
Both were from my store credit in the span of a day. I changed my password and have been good since then, didn't think about complaining to apple as it was only like $15.
- abcd_f 15y agoWhere is your iTunes installation? Windows or Mac? It'd be interesting to see what people who had this problem have in common in terms of their setup. It might just be some sort of trojan/rootkit making rounds.
- matdwyer 15y agoBoth Mac & Windows, although at that time it would be primarily Mac. Three devices (2 iPhones & an iPad). For what it is worth, I was using the same password as my "normal" internet pass. Promptly changed to unique one and that saved it, so not sure if it could have been a phising thing or a stolen pw (although I'm typically very diligent about it)
- jcarreiro 15y agoI can't recommend 1password enough. There is no substitute for having a unique, long, alphanumeric+symbols password for every web site you use. If you use the same password for multiple sites, then your entire online identity is only as secure as the weakest site. Disclaimer: I am a satisfied 1password customer (iPhone and OS X) who is not affiliated with the agile.ws team in any way.
