This doesn't look like a phishing scheme and the headers look good.
Anybody else?

Michael,
No, but lots from "Paypal" saying that there is an unresolved item on the account and that the account may well be restricted until it is sorted out.
I looked at the headers and they originate NOT from Paypal but the stupid thing is that the links on the Email message actually are LIVE Paypal links so I can't see the reason for the email as it never sends you back to a "harvesting site" to get your login details so what is the point? I did send the email off to Paypal and they responded in the affirmative that it is a SPAM email and they were looking into it, so I've done my bit!

This must be just hitting. On the Apple boards they're talking about it. I haven't used Itune in years, so i don't think I'm vulnerable for getting my card hacked, but someone did purchase something from my ID. I'm not sure how that can happen since none of my credit cards have been charged and there wasn't a balance in it

Looks like I haven't ordered anything from apple since 2008. The credit cards on the account have expired.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2665383?start=1500&tstart=0
Go to the newest threads.
This is weird. Someone purchased an app on my account, but changed the information
Date of birth
Security question(s) and answer(s)
Shipping and/or billing address
Credit card
So they purchased an app on my account, but on someone else's card and billing address. Why? Why not just create a new account?

Depending on the card company, just because a vendor has an old expiration
date, they may still let the charge go through. We had that happen on an
online gaming account my son used. He didn't let us know he was no longer
playing the game and they charged us for over 2 years. after the card
expiration. The credit card company wouldn't do anything about it.

It was the personal account.

OK 7 receipts for orders just showed up in my bin. Some poor bastard now has $250 on his credit card. Finding the right place to get Apple to pay attention to this took me an hour.

That's the trouble with these big companies. They make it hard or downright
impossible to contact. Ebay and Paypal are two of the culprits.

Apple will swear up and down for as long as possible that nothing is
happening, and all is well in magical pixie-dust land, until a critical
mass of complaining users is reached, the IT bloggers weigh in, and
they're forced to do something.
