Let's see... lots to unpack here.


First of all, what are you talking about?


It's highly unlikely that anyone here is trying to 'scam you'. We're just regular users, and we have no idea who you really are beyond a screen name and what ever you choose to put in your profile. That doesn't give us a lot of attack vectors.


In addition, your post is kind of weak on details... I'd hazard a guess that you have a charge on your credit card for '100' somethings (I have no idea what country you're in (see my above point), so I don't know if that's Dollars, Euros, Shekels, Rupees, Yuan or Pesos).


On top of that, Apple isn't in the habit of randomly chagrining users for no reason. That's a really bad practice and not going to garner much goodwill.


Instead, the far more likely scenarios are one of:


a) the charge you're seeing isn't related to Apple in any way (since we don't know anything about the card in question, or the charge, or.. pretty much anything... it's hard to be sure)

b) the charge relates to some product you ordered, typically via the App Store - maybe a app one your phone or desktop system

c) the charge relates to a subscription you signed up for (even inadvertently... some apps offer free trial periods and hit your account when the trial expires if you don't cancel first

d) the charge relates to actions by a malicious user - someone else using your card and/or identity to make purchases.


In either case, IF this is a charge on your credit card, AND that charge is related to a purchase or subscription via the App Store then https://apple.com/bill is the place to go. It will list all charges billed to your Apple Account, and if they are wrong or fraudulent, there are options there as to what actions you can take to dispute the charge.


If the charge is not there then it may not relate to Apple, so you'll need to do more work to track down where it's from.

If the charge is fraudulent (someone else is using your card) you'll need to talk to your bank to cancel the transaction, cancel your card, and issue you a new one.

  • What did you see when viewing your Purchase History? Don't forget that local sales tax is not included in what you see there, so the exact amount is not likely to match.
  • Are these Notifications actually from your bank where you see the deduction in your account and not a scam message?
  • Are you an Organizer of a Family Plan? If you turned on Purchase Sharing, that allows members to make purchases that will be billed to your payment method. You are still able to view those purchases, you just have to choose their account when viewing your Purchase History.

the 9171 is me so that’s why i’m unsure on what’s going on again i understand i don’t see it in my recent history with apple when i logged into my apple support

Hello once more~ Please click on the highlighted link that I posted for you and review. There is a chance that your card/credentials have been compromised and if this in fact you need to contact your card or banking institution to have this checked out. I would do that sooner rather than later.
