I’m receiving emails for purchases in the App Store that I didn’t purchase. The email says my Apple ID has been use to purchase this or that. How do I dispute this or make sure my account hasn’t been hacked?

You are receiving scam emails. Did you provide any potentially damaging information to anyone? If yes, you'll need to follow up, for example, with a credit card company, Apple, your bank, etc.
If you gave you Apple ID password to the scammer, then

And, here is some information on how to "Avoid phishing emails, fake 'virus'
alerts, phony support calls, and other scams:" https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204759This

Here is another read that covers scamming. It deals with the App and itunes Stores,
but it also has more general applicability https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201679
I did not provide any information. My gut said scam on the first email then I received another the next day. I just wanted to make sure. Appreciate your assistance with this matter.
Thank you! Now I can ease my mind.
You are very welcome.
