Money stolen on iTunes, Victim gets back
CRANSTON, R.I. (WPRI) – A local woman who lost $ 1,350 on his iTunes account was hacked got his money – but not by Apple Inc.
Sherry Izzi said that its lender, National Bank in Cranston, put money in your checking account on Wednesday, a week after she first reported the fraud.
Eyewitness News reported Friday that Izzi, aged 38, had spent two days trying unsuccessfully to reach either Apple or the National Bank to repay money stolen from him. Each company claimed that the other was responsible. They have not responded to requests for comment.
“I’m certain if it wasn’t for your report on my iTunes account being hacked, not much would have been done in a timely manner,” Izzi said in an e-mail, adding later that “it would have been a big finger-pointing game, resulting with me as the loser.”
Interior of money by putting Izzi account within 7-10 days, which is its policy, while noting the delay “it hurts me a lot with this money is lost.”
Despite contacts with Apple on several occasions by email – no phone support that is available on the iTunes Store – Izzi never heard a word from the company, which posted record earnings in the second quarter of $ 3.3 billion earlier this week.
Now, he says Izzi is through iTunes, which sells products such as digital music, movies, applications and books.
“I won’t be using that service again,” she said. “It’s a shame seeing as I’ve been a loyal Apple customer, but their non-response to my having over $1,300 stolen via their service says it all.”
