Help/Support In-App Purchases Email From Apple

Mr shady · June 16, 2016

Received this email from Apple since I couldn't buy any inapp purchases.

( Our records indicate that the device you are attempting to use to make purchases has been linked to unauthorized activity on the iTunes Store. Due to this, this device will not be allowed to be used to place new purchases or update existing Apps. Future purchases and updates can still be made from other devices or computers and then transferred to the device.)

Anything I can do to resolve this ???

Try to contact them about the problem..?

@leafy I did contacted them but they said this device is involved in breach of iTunes terms and conditions. There is nothing we can do about it.

I bought this device online month ago.

The emei is blacklisted. No coming back from that. I'd sell it online and get a new one if I were you.

Edit: You can still make purchases through the iTunes store on your computer. Just not the device.

@Ky1e thanks for reply.

That would be my last option if nothing works out.

Meant IMEI... Auto correct is killing me.

IMEI = Phone serial number.

Oh.

How does one IMEI even get blacklisted though?

That is your last option buddy. The IMEI is your phones serial number and is unique to that phone. The only way you can fix it is by replacing it with the IMEI of another iPhone but that IMEI has to be clean also. Which would only come from getting another phone or buying one new.

I had my IMEI blacklisted for hacking Apple music. They got me because it crashed on my wife and she hit the "send crash diagnostic to developers" button lol. I had gotten busted once before when I made an in app purchase on an app I cracked. There are lots of ways to get blacklisted.
