Fake iTunes receipt

Today I received a 'receipt' from the following address (I received a mail from the following address (iTunes Store do_not_reply@mdn-txn-msbadger1.apple.co.uk via fargo.websitewelcome.com ) claiming I had made an in-app purchase of some app for £27.99. I have no record or doing this and presume this is an attempt to scam me. Has anyone seen anything similar?

iPad (4th gen) Wi-Fi, iOS 8.1.2
