He realized something was wrong as soon as he did it, touched base with me and one of my brothers (his IT department).

Anyway, he's been spending his afternoon making phone calls. His old credit card has now been canceled, new one on the way, he removed his billing info from his Itunes account, etc. It's going to be a pain in the butt.
Oh, NO!

Well, at least he was on the ball enough to catch it. That's super, and it's great that he has you and your brothers (boy, do I know what you mean about being the familial IT unit) to rely upon. What a bugger that is! (The phishing, I mean, not you guys being the IT department!)
