You can unblock your Apple Account by resolving the unpaid balance that triggered the security hold.When a transaction or subscription renewal fails due to insufficient funds, Apple treats the unpaid amount as an outstanding debt. They temporarily disable the "Media & Purchases" functions of your account to prevent further uncollected charges, which can sometimes appear to the user as a fraud/hacking block.

Refer to this support article and links therein. If your Apple Account is locked, not active, or disabled - Apple Support
The first example and the last one in particular may apply to your situation since you say this is an issue with a payment but also that your issue appears to be not something you can resolve with Apple and that your account appears to them to be hacked.
This is a case where it would help if we knew the exact wording of the message. Always include that when posting here as it can be diagnostic of an issue.

If you see a message that says your Apple Account is locked or not active, you might be able to request access to your account by tapping Request Access right from the alert.
