I got an email about in app purchases I didn’t make

I got an email saying I was billed for an in-app purchase I didn’t make. There is more than one and I never make in-purchases. How can I handle this?

You are sure that it’s a genuine email from Apple and not a phishing attempt trying to get your account and payment details ?

If it's a genuine email and it shows on your account's purchase history, and nobody else has access to your account or devices/computers, then contact iTunes Support : https://support.apple.com/contact . And change your account's password http://appleid.apple.com - after changing it : What to do after you change your Apple ID email address or password - Apple Support.


If it is a phishing email you could forward it to Apple : reportphishing@apple.com , and then delete it.
