Last night I found a Rogue App on my iPhone that I certainly don't remember downloading or purchasing.

The name on the iPhone was in Spanish -- paciencia HD

It is found here - http://itunes.apple.com/br/app/paciencia-hd/id364388950?mt=8

And when you click on "view in iTunes" within that link, it shows in English as --- Solitaire Fantastic

I found that it costs $0.99 and it is a GameCenter app. Looking on my computer at the info for the app, it says it was purchased on March 19th with my Apple ID. Looking at my purchase history in iTunes though, I see no record of such a purchase.

I did the mandatory change my password and device authorization, but how would such an app get on my phone and there be no record of me ever purchasing the app?

Any thoughts?

Is it possible you downloaded it when it was first introduced? At that time it was FREE and downloading it would have been a one-click procedure.

I'm not sure- but do downloaded free apps show up in purchase history?
If not, that would be my guess.
