This is the

How is this even possible?
Many users are reporting that their iTunes accounts got hacked, and they found themselves new owners of these applications.
UPDATE #1: It looks like changing your password might not be enough. It’s highly recommended to change your payment method to “None”, at least as a temporary solution until Apple acknowledges the problem and finds a solution.
