Why am I being charged for Apple Cupertino Ca?

Please review these support documents:

• If you see 'apple.com/bill' on your billing statement - Apple Support. Learn how Apple billing works.
• View your purchase history for the App Store, iTunes Store, and other Apple media services - Apple Support. All charges to your Apple ID account will be specified there. See if your mystery charge is listed there.
• See your subscriptions overview - Apple. All your active subscriptions will be listed there.
• If you want to cancel a subscription from Apple - Apple Support. If you were subscribed to anything that you now want to cancel.

Unfortunately, not all messages about charges are legitimate. Others may have details for your payment method. Or some try to trick you into paying for something you don’t need or want. And/or some might be posing as Apple (or deceptively similar to it). For most of that, you will have to deal with it through your bank or card issuer.

A scam active since about 2014 "spoofs" Apple and other major retailers when scammers gain access to your credit card number. We had charges on a card account from a major department store chain where we had not shopped since long before the Internet existed.

That means that Urquhart's excellent advice to view your purchase history is your first and best action. If the charges do NOT show on your history, Apple cannot fix it. Only your credit card issuer ot financial instituion can make it right.

With our problem, AMEX was able to identify the charges as bogus, clear the debt , and issue Mrs AJ a new card number with 24 hours of our first contact.

Another senior contributor here post this link to a pertinent web article on the subject:

The charge description varies a bit, sometimes without the phone number, but it's the same scam.

Check that purchase history!
