American Express giving away five free iTunes songs to card holders
If you have an American Express credit card, then you’re in luck. The company is currently offering a promotion in which all card holders can get five free songs of their choice from the iTunes store. The promotion came alongside the official launch of the iPhone 4 on Verizon and will be available until March 15th.
Be wary, phishers targeting iTunes users
For the first time in Apple’s history, an Apple program is the target of a Phishing scam. Recently, thousands of iTunes users have received fraudulent emails, asking them for personal information including credit card numbers, Social Security numbers, mother’s maiden name, and more. Andrew Lochart of Proofpoint, inc. expressed his surprise with the attempt. “We’ve gotten used to seeing the usual companies and brands attacked,” he said, “like PayPal, eBay and Citibank. But we’ve never seen Apple as the target”. For Apple, the Phishing attempt should in a way come as a complement, as Phishers would never bother with a small-time site. Apple’s recent success in both the music industry and computer industry can be blamed as the reason for the attack.
