    It sounds like this is a third party's account that inadvertently used his e-mail address. Acting as that party may be against the terms of service for the system and thus could potentially be considered illegal in some jurisdictions. (I am not a lawyer, but that would be my concern.) The best bet is to contact Apple about it. Commented Jan 4, 2013 at 17:07
  • Just to clarify, I downvoted because there is nothing in the question that indicates that the asker even has an Apple account based on his GMail account. I can't see any way that Apple could be socially engineered in to charging an e-mail account they have no billing information for. This sounds much more like a case of a typo where the username and password may be all that the legitimate user of that account has to go on to fix the issue. Commented Jan 4, 2013 at 17:12
  • I do have an apple ID, but it's not tied to my gmail account Commented Jan 4, 2013 at 18:21
