Charge on my account.

I received an email stating someone used my account to buy a Pokémon game.

I am not sure the email is real. I have attached pics of the email.

It's fake. Forward it to reportphishing@apple.com as an attachment and then delete it.

Email about my Apple ID I got an email saying that someone , somwhere on some different device had purchased Pokémon Go from my Apple ID. The charge was $99.99. It hasn’t been charged to my debit card. Is this a real email or a scam?

Fraudulent use of Apple ID I received an email that claims it's from Apple: "Your Apple ID, has just been used to purchase Strategy Games from the App Store on a computer or a device that had never been associated with that Apple ID." It sounds suspicious. There was a receipt attached to the email for $15.30 for the app. Asked if it was me and it wasn't. It was not billed to me, but when I clicked to "Report a problem" it didn't seem quite right. I certainly did NOT authorize any purchase the "Strategy Games" app. What do I do?
