I called AMEX to make sure one of the two charges was not a "hold" or "pre-authorization" charge and they confirmed it was indeed double charged. ...
I would just give order to Amex to cancel the double booking. It is not your job to help Lufthansa out of their IT- and accounting chaos.
Usually, Amex will credit the amount immediately, recharge it to LH and ask them to show cardholder authorisation for both charges if LH might complain.
