There’s some weird stuff going on with users who own one of the products from the Cupertino giants. Upon charging their bank details or card statement, they witness that there has been a deduction on their card by a person who goes by the name of either Bill Cupertino or Dave Cupertino. The amount charged ranges from $10 to $14, and in some cases, this is charged multiple times throughout the day.
For some, the matter is even worse as they claimed that they “got my whole savings depleted from the Cupertino charge”. While the real identity of this person is yet to be identified, but it most likely seems to be a scammer who is using the Cupertino surname to establish a level of trust among the users.
With that said, this issue seriously raises series privacy and security concerns since the amount is being auto-debited from a user’s account and Apple is keeping a safe distance from this issue ever since it came to light. So what could be done from the user’s point of view to address this concern at the earliest? Let’s find out.
Apple’s Bill Cupertino charged your card? Here’s what to do!
- Head over to reportaproblem.apple.com and sign into your account.
- A list of purchases will appear. Select the one from Bill Cupertino.
- Now cancel that subscription and check if it works in your favor.
if you are unable to get hold of the required information, then go to your email and search for words like “receipt from Apple” or “invoice from Apple”. Grab hold of your receipt from the email and then use those details in the reportaproblem.apple.com site.
If it doesn’t then you might have to take the nuclear route of temporarily disabling your card until the issue is rectified by Apple. At the time of writing, Apple is even yet to acknowledge this issue, let alone give out any ETA for the rollout of a fix. As and when any of these two things happen, we will update this guide accordingly. In the meantime, the aforementioned workarounds are your best bet.
