Possible spoof charges to my account

I have received a billing charge from Apple or a look a like for the purchase of a game app. I don't play video games. The charge was $19.95. Is this a spoof email??

If the only indication of the charges is from an email or text, be aware that it may be a phishing attempt to get you to log in to a site that appears to be Apple and divulge your password or credit card information.

If it is a real charge, see: If you see 'itunes.com/bill' or an unfamiliar charge on your statement - Apple Support
