They are from iTunes, i checked my reciept prices against them, they all match. Luxembourg ainly comes under EU cardholders because there's an apple building there thats big or something. It's not a hack. keep ya hair on.


EDIT:


It clearly states that the bank statement date of recieveing the purchase isn't the same as when your receipt came in.


Mine is displayed


18/5/13 Apple Store Luxembourg Itunes (something like that)

(Reciept Date Of 29th April)


So check that before assuming it's a scam.

got also a transfer as "APPLE ITUNES STORE-EU ITUNES.COM LU" (1.98€ - german iTunes store) directly after configuring a MasterCard as the preferred payment-method before downloading the "single of the week".


Wrote to apple-EMEA-Support.

It's not that bad, that MasterCard couldn't be overdrawn and because of security there's always <= 10€ on the card, but I can't recheck that payments in my Apple-Account...

Guys, that thing is what your iTunes Receipt looks like on your bank statement, it's like a month's worth of items written as one, I live in the UK and it always charges my purchases to there (Except mine is GBP not USD (Currencey)).

That's normal and it isn't fraudulent, if you're getting random reciepts even though you haven't bought anything, check your family aren't buying apps or mistakenly purchasing in-app purchases.

Dear Mir****,


Thank you for contacting iTunes Store Customer Support. My name is ******

and it's my pleasure to assist you today. I understand that you are

seeing an unrecognized charge on your account. I'll be glad to sort

this out for you.


I checked your iTunes account and it appears that this amount is only an

authorization hold. When you update your billing information, the iTunes

Store will place an authorization hold on your credit card to verify your

account information. You might see this authorization request on your

online statement. This is not an actual charge, it is simply a test to

confirm that your credit card account is active and has credit available to

accommodate transactions.


Authorization requests are automatically removed from your account by your

financial institution. The amount of time it takes to remove authorization

requests varies by financial institution. If you have any questions about

the way your financial institution handles authorization requests, please

contact their customer service department.
