An Apple fan who has spent “nearly 30 years as a loyal customer” says they’ve been “permanently” locked out of their Apple Account due to what might be the overzealous actions of Apple’s automated anti-fraud system.

      sometimes stores have sales that includes gift cards so you can get $500 of apple credit for 20% off
