To sort of sum up:
It sounds like someone is either pretending to be Apple iTunes to steal from credit or debit cards or using stolen credit cards to purchase from Apple iTunes.
If this happens to you, call the number on the back of your card. Tell them that there are unauthorized charges on your card. Say that you have not purchased from Apple iTunes. Also say that you have found examples online of this happening to other people. Follow the bank's instructions.

My bank advised me to cancel my card and they would reissue another one. They said we could dispute the charge. No other information was available from them.

READ ALL OF THE RESPONSES ABOVE.
Apple is not doing this. Scammers have discovered that if they steal credit cards and move money with a fake description (APL* ITUNES) alot of people don't notice and they can get away with it.
RUN don't walk to your bank, get new cards and account numbers and fill out a fraud report.
Most of us are just regular people here. We are "real" people but we don't have any connection to Apple , the banks, or to the scum bags in China and Russia who have your money.
I’m frustrated too
