Received a text message on my mobile phone saying I am todays lucky winner. Go to apple.com.au/textaprize and enter 4 numbers.
Seems like iTunes have not fixed the hole and morons are still hacking into peoples accounts. Hope they don't use my gift card credits.
This was going around in 2010.

Yeah I got one about an hour ago with "apple.com.au.smtk.cc"... They are pretty common from a quick google on the web. The thing that is worrying is that people are asking if it's a scam, I guess the allure of getting something for nothing is pretty powerful.

Having been in IT security for over a decade, "if it seems to good to be true, it probably is" springs to mind...happy to act as a filter if somebody is concerned about an offers legitimacy...

I know people who don't have itunes or an account that get this so I don't think that it is a hacked itunes account:question:

Maybe its because I don't have one!
