I have no idea how this is working, but I saw one post that stated their email, username, password, and secret password question/answer were all changed. People are finding out by charges on their bank accounts, not from Apple emails. Evidently there is a small charge, then once approved a series of $50-100 charges are made to your account.

I had my checking account hacked one time last year, and within one day I had bought makeup in the UK, airline tickets in Chile, and herbal junk from Utah, even more until my account was cleaned out.
