Possibly a dictionary-based attack program is finding accounts with weak passwords? Sounds as if it may be something like that. A "golden rule" is never to use a password that's in the dictionary. I see now what's happening, though - the account is being hacked and then purchases made against "junk" books that the criminal has uploaded to the iBookstore. If that is the case, this will probably only affect people with accounts on the US iBookstore since that's currently the only one that permits individuals to upload books for sale.
