9to5mac is reporting that iTunes accounts have been hacked once again and this time the hackers have taken aim at paypal users. It is reported that one unlucky itunes user was charged $4,700 for purchasing 50 items at $99.99 a piece, the good thing is the user noticed and had paypal cancel the transactions. The user from the pic above was not so lucky and didn’t notice anything until his accounts were drained.
So what do you do if all of this is going on??
It seems that the hackers are using itunes accounts with the paypal payment option to steal. A smart thing to do right now would be to delete any form of payment within your itunes account until Apple deals with this major problem. It is also smart to check all of your accounts whether it be paypal and bank accounts to make sure you see no suspicious activity.
Also don’t be caught being lazy and stay on the safe side, it is recommended you change your password to a secure one. A strong password would include more than 8 characters with numbers, letters, and symbols.

I'm pretty sure mine got hacked. I can't log in. And I know I didn't change my password. Something is fishy. Better not get mail from my bank. I'll flip.
