Using your debit card on an ipod touch or iphone?
If I used my debit card on my ipod touch to by something is it still at risk of being hacked or from someone being able to use it?
Added (1). I'm talking about buying stuff off of safari like on amazon or whatever
Whenever you put anything on the internet, you are at risk from being hacked, but Itunes has a good reputation, so it is unlikely that you will be.
I don't know I haven't had any issues but if you notice anything suspicious then tell your credit/debit card company and talk with apple
Itunes usually asks for a password before each purchase unless you have changed the settings. If you use a wi-fi connection at home then you should have that password protected which will make it very difficult for someone to hack it.
It is very unlikely for your internet coming from your mobile network to be hacked into, in fact I have never heard of someone mobile internet being hacked.
I don't think it is very likely that either your wi-fi or mobile network will get hacked into.
Any account on the internet is at risk of being hacked but in your case its not very likey that it will. I wouldn't really worry about it.
If your itunes doesn't ask for a password then you are best setting a password on your phone, here's how to do it: http://www.knowyourmobile.com/appleiphone/apple_iphone_userguides/4684/how_to_password_protect_your_iphone.html
If someone does hack your account as long as you have made reasonable attempts to protect it then you can claim your money back from the bank or apple.
Hope that helps
