Check Your Statements For This Long-Running Scam
You see lines on your credit or debit card statement that read "APL*ITUNES.CON/BILL 866-712-7753 CA" or something similar. Where did all those charges from iTunes come from?
Maybe it's your spouse downloading audiobooks. Maybe it's your kids downloading their favorite songs or inadvertently making in-app purchases while playing online games. Maybe it's subscription renewals that you forgot about.
Or, maybe it's an identity thief who's making small charges on your account to see if you're paying attention. Scams involving iTunes have been around almost as long as iTunes has existed. Identity thieves like to use iTunes to test the waters with a stolen identity.
To rectify the problem, you need to know where the charges are really coming from. Start by checking the purchase history under all Apple IDs that are attached to that credit or debit card account...
