iPhone set up

I am trying to set up my new iPhone 13 and transfer across data using my apple ID - the phone is telling me that there are apps purchased on my old phone using several email accounts I have never heard of - what do I do?

iPhone 7, iOS 12

Try signing out of the App Store/iTunes, restart, and then sign back in. Check the updates to see if the apps requiring an update are in your Purchases History. If they aren't in your Purchases History, you can delete the app, and download it using your Apple ID if desired. If the apps are in your Purchases History, contact iTunes Support.
