False billing email from iTunes Store

I received an email, based on my secondary email account, with an alleged bill (Receipt # 850120001476) for $52.98, for two alleged purchases from iTunes Store. To me,since I have not many any purchases from the iTunes Store, this is a malware scam email. Has anyone experienced a similar scam?
Appreciatively, Bruce

Yes, there's a couple of those per day reported on the forums.

Received email from "itunes store, orders@tunes.co.au, stating that I've purchased "Kill Bill Double Feature for $199. I have not. Is this a scanm?

Received email from "itunes store, [email protected] stating that I had purchased Kill Bill Double Feature movie bundle for $199.99". I have not bought this.
It is asking me to provide billing information to verify that I'm the legitimate account holder. Is this a scam?

Yes. Look at the address carefully - 'tunes' - and the link to enter your information will also be a non-Apple one. Don't follow any links; bin it.

WATCH OUT!!!! Hoax email from Itunes store floating around... it is pretty badly worded bu this is an attempt to get your credit card and other personal detail. Check to see if the email is from itunes before you open anything

There is an email going around telling you you have credit or an offer for credit from itunes. It is a hoax.... as soon as you open it and action it your personal and credit information has been given to the scum that sent it out. Look at who the email is from by checking the actual address not just the summary that comes up... This has been going around Facebook for a while and now these crooks have moved to itunes... BE CAREFUL!!!!

Yoor post is very confusing. AOL's iPad magazine is called "Editions" and it's free. "The Daily" is put out by TheDailyHolding and is owned by Rupert Murdoch. You've already posted in another thread where the solution was given. Other people seem to have manged to get unsubscribed.
Best of luck.

It's a phishing attempt to get your account and payment details, it's not from Apple - if you clicked on the links in it and entered your details then you should change your password immediately e.g. by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPad and selecting 'view apple id' on the popup and signing into it, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com
If you still have the email then you could forward it to Apple : [email protected]

I am a resident of Canada. I cannot purchase any items from ITunes Store because I cannot update my billing address correctly. It is always default to US address. Why?

This can cause many problems. I hope, Apple can find a solution cause this will mislead many emails.

You are a bit vague as to what you are trying to
accomplish.
The problem is, that it seems that email, send from iTunes Store is only send to networks which doesn't do anything against Spam. So it is not iTunes but an iTunes Store problem. There should be a better solution to validate the email adresses. If it is done like now, many emails should be returned to sender.
If you are trying to give feedback then use the
iTunes drop down menu>Provide iTunes Feedback.
I did that on a suggestion for getting better iTunes

Thanks for your advice, I went to the apple shop today for a face to face meeting with a tech and he checked everything and could not figure out why I was having this problem so we decided to give up on that account and create a whole new one for me using a different email address.
Now I can download apps on both my iPhone and ipad2.
If anyone is reading this in Brisbane Australia go to the Chermside apple shop and ask for Wade. He was fantastic!

My apple id unable to purchases music or apps from itunes store

It happened many times with my Apple id. Firstly, I was unable to purchases contents from itunes store. The notif "contact itunes support" always appear everytime I tried to purchased. Everytime I met the issue, I always contacted itunes support, but rarely itunes support teams replied my email. This time, it happened again, and even more. Right now I couldn't purchases anything from itunes store even music. It said that I have to verify my billing info. I've tiped everything needed in that billing info also my credit card, but the notif always "security code is invalid". How come it is invalid, when I handed the card my self when I tiped the number on my apple id. I've repeated it over and over again, but the same notif always came.
Anyone could explain to me, what's happen to my apple id axactly and how to solve this issue.
Thanks.

if both itunes on the computer and on the phone dont show any then apple must not be offering that service in your country

You have to be in a country, and have a billing address in that country, to download from its store. You can try requesting that the app be added to the Slovenia store, but unless the app's developer/rights-holder agrees to it then Apple won't be able to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

you can't, unless you fulfill these requirements:
From the itunes store terms of service:
+to purchase from an iTunes Store in a particular country, you must have both a residential address and a billing address in that particular country. Items on any particular country's iTunes Store are available only for distribution to customers who use a credit card, debit card, iTunes Gift Certificate, or iTunes Gift Card issued in and for that country.+
