Default Check Your iTunes Receipts!

http://www.macworld.com/article/140...l?lsrc=rss_news

"Credit card fraud and identity theft on the Internet are nothing new-these days, they're just a fact of life. But in case you're not already keeping close tabs on your monthly credit card statement, here's yet another reason to be vigilant: iTunes-related fraud."

From the sounds of it, this is becoming a pretty big problem. ID theft/fraud in general these days is rampant, so this is just one more example of how it is spreading.  A Fox affiliate in New York posted a story about this topic, with several examples of customers being duped and frustrated at the lack of help they are getting from Paypal and from Apple. Bottom line is these days you have to watch over your financial information like a hawk so you don't end up in one of these stories.
