DIRECT MKTG INTERNET Fradulent Charges

Had 5 separate charges to my AmEx, each for $6.99 from "WWW.ITUNES.COM/BILL - CUPERTINO, CA, DIRECT MKTG INTERNET." Purchase allegedly "Merchandise & Supplies - Internet Purchase." Since my last purchase on this account was in 2014, the charges are obviously fraudulent. American Express has suspended payment and is investigating. However, I note from posts in 2017 and 2018, this scam has been going on for at least 3 years. Apple also needs to dig into this as the billing seems to implicate them as well.
