how to do it. Simply follow these steps:
First of all, you need to ensure that the email notification you received is truly from Apple iTunes. Scammers and thieves may be attempting to
scam and steal from you. Ensure that the email is genuine. If you get doubtful emails like these, immediately report it to Apple through email (reportphishing@apple.com).
For example, emails from Apple will never ask you to provide your social security number, full credit card number and stuff like that. If you get an email asking for any of these, then that
is a scam email.

the case, simply delete the email and you don’t have to do anything else. Follow these steps to view your purchase history:
