Emails - about purchases that i have not made

I just received an email about a purchase i have supposedly made with an unregistered device .
When i click the sign in link on the email - i get a few boxes asking my bank details - this i did not fill out since i know i have not bought anything for about three years . I then returned the email and it just bounced back to me . I then loaded up iTunes - checked my purchase history and guess what? its not listed !
Im assuming this is a scam ? please can someone assure me apples store is concrete in regard to purchases ?
Has anyone else had this happen recently? i received this email early this morning...
Any enlightenment would be lovely - thanks.

Hi London Guy,
Yes, that is a common form of scam and is reported here frequently.
You were correct to check your Purchase History to see if there was really a purchase, and to avoid entering any account/bank details.

I have been charged for a purchase that I have not made

Hi,
I have been charged for a purchase that I have not made (just seen on my online banking) and it does not appear on my purchase history can anyone let me know how I get in touch with apple as I am strugglng to find any contact details for this.
I haven't made any purchases that have cost me only free apps.
Anyhelp much appreciated.
Thanks

You can contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
But if nothing show on your account's purchase history (you only have the one account to which that card has been attached) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727
and it's not a temporary store holding charge : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3702
then you may also want to contact your card issuer

I keep getting emails for iTunes purchases that I have not authorized

I have received several emails for iTunes purchases that I have NOT authorized. The name on the Billed To is not my name or address, but it includes my Comcast email address. I don't know if I am being charged for these purchases through Comcast or not, but these receipts should not be coming to me. What can i do?

If the email is asking you to verify your account or in any way provide personal informaton, it's a fake, trying to scam you out of your account information or credit card details. Do not respond to any emails that have a link asking for personal information. Just delete the message.
Regards.

Change your password. Alert your credit card company that your account has been hacked - ask them about reimbursement.
If you would like to contact itunes support it is quite simple. Click Support at the top of this page, then click the link under Contact Us.

I have recieved two emails from Apple and Itunes about an order I have not made. The shipping details are to me and I have the order number but it is not showing up on my account. How do I cancel it and make sure I have not had any money removed from my

account.

I cant find the bank. How do I speak to someone within ITunes about this. If they used what was left of a gift card there must be someone I can contact? Help

I have charges that I have not made.. I have recently deleted my CC info and still have charges made to my account, I need help to find out what is going on.

I recently had charges made to my account for almost $100, I got online deleted my cc info over a week ago and today I recieved charges for $10.84 to ITUNES. I cant contact anyone to find out how this is happening. when I look to see what the charges were for its for the kids movie ICE AGE and app of some kind. what is going on.??

You've checked the purchase history on your account via your computer's iTunes (Store > View My Account), and you haven't got any auto-renewing subscriptions ? If you don't recognise the charges then contact iTunes support (these are user-to-user forums) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption.

HT5312 I tried to buy a DVD & was told i have not made a purchase from this computer this is incorrect

I have made many purchases with this computer, but I tried to buy a movie and was told that I have not made a purchase from this computer, this is incorrect
now they want extra passwords

Other people have also posted about being asked their questions despite it not being the first purchase on the computer or device.
Have you set the questions/answers in the past ?
If you have and you know their answers then you should be able to answer them and make the purchase.
If you can't remember them and you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

I need verification about my account that I have not vitrify

I need to verification about my account that I have not vitrify on my Apple ID account

If you mean that you haven't verified it then you should have recieved an email to the primary email account on your account - from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622 :
Why am I sometimes asked to verify my Apple ID by email?
When you create a new Apple ID or make certain changes to your account, Apple will require you to sign in by following the link in a verification email. This is to help protect your identity and keep your account secure. Some Apple services, such as FaceTime and GameCenter, require email validation.
How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify.

HT204088 iTunes is telling me that I have not purchased from my iPhone before although I have multiple times, and I don't remember my security questions and there is no option to change them. Any suggestions other than making a new account?

If you create a new Apple ID you won't have access to the media purchased with the Apple ID you are currently using.

Songs show up in my iTunes Library that I have not purchased - anyone else have this happen?

So I was just organizing my iTunes library and am finding songs that I have not purchased, have not interest in and are coming via the cloud.
Is anyone else seeing this? When I try to delete, it will only allow me to hide them... ***?!

Is your cloud account shared with anyone else? Maybe they're adding them.

I have numerous music movie clips that I have not purchased through iTunes, Is it possible to stream these "home" movies using iTunes to apple TV?
And if iTunes will not allow it, is there another complete program available that I can purchase to have my music movie clips stream to a TV and/or another computer?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks, Winston C, I've actually tried everything you suggested. I'm thinking now that the Home Sharing problem likely is related to Bonjour--I've seen several people mention this with similar (but not identical) problems. The solution that seems to work for some people is to uninstall and reinstall Bonjour. Frankly, I don't want to go through the trouble given that the iOS 7 release is imminent.
One thing that I haven't tried is resetting the ATV to factory settings. I'll give that whirl.
Thanks for your advice!

Email addresses popping down that I have not stored in my address book. How do I delete them?

When I start writing a letter on a new email, a pop down menu with addresses show some "contacts" or email addresses that I have not stored or used.
How can I get rid of them? This is on the mail app. that comes with the iPad.
Any input anyone? Thanks.

Something really strange is going on here. First, I went to do the same comparison that you did. In my case, I intended to compare Mail on my original iPad with Mail on my Mac. I was completely unable to locate the "Previous Recipients" list on the iPad. Where is it?
I did attempt to do a lesser comparison by creating a message on the iPad and putting "a" in the "To" field. Up popped several dozen recipients that begin with the letter "a." I was unable to match the listing up with the listing in the Mac on a one-for-one basis (because the sorting is different) but I did locate several addresses in the iPad that are unquestionably not in the Mac. HOWEVER, the real confusing part is that I know for a fact that I have not sent any emails to these individuals for over five years (and, obviously, I could not have used the iPad)! One is a former manager at a company that I worked for ten years ago. Another is the contact at the medical insurance company for the same employer.
The items in the Mac listing were equally weird. Many, of course, were legit but there were several that I know for a fact that I had absolutely never sent any messages to these recipients. One that stood out is an address with the name "Bladder Cancer Lawyer" and it was allegedly "last used" several weeks ago. A message to such an individual is not something that I'm likely to forget (especially rather quickly).
Right now, I am thoroughly confused. Just for giggles, I'm going to delete the entire list on the Mac and see what happens. Actually, I'm going to stall for a while just in case you come up with another thought.
