    Jessie,

    I know you are upset but this is not the place to publish a message like that.   It is a technical forum.   If you have a paper trail and the message was criminal in any way, you could approach the police.   But ask yourself first, is there anything there you would not want them to see?

    I wish I could be of more practical help.

    No. There is nothing that I do not want people to see. Pictures and messages were sent to some of my friends via my phone number and they actually contacted me telling me that weird pictures and messages were sent to their phone numbers. I have friends who care about me and let me know the situation without telling me who they are and asked about my boyfriend and hoped I wasn't cheating on him. I said absolutely not and told them his full name and that I absolutely loved him. It was VERY RUDE OF THEM AND I AM VERY UPSET.

    I'm sorry to hear of your situation.  If you think your iCloud account was compromised (and it sounds as if it was), then it's time to do some reading -- If you think your Apple ID has been compromised - Apple Support

    Hello again, Jessie,

     

    That really sounds nasty but the exact content is what matters if you decided to tell the police.   If the pictures were pornographic in any way you should report it.   And the suggestion by Zincef (above) to review your iCloud details is sensible.   You should do that.

     

    I am also thinking that having cleared your initial upset and got some advice you may now feel you want to remove this whole post.   It is of no further use and while usually this cannot be done, if you ask me to, I will ask the hosts on your behalf to remove it.

     

    I do hope it all sorts itself out and wish you well.   Thank you for the star.

     

    Regards, 71.

    My apologies. My mother sold my old iPhone 5s (from T-mobile) on Ebay and I was VERY UPSET. T-Mobile only sends you a (very confusing) email to explain how to reset your phone to open it up to ATT. I received a message from the user on Ebay and he basically told me to go to HE**. Hopefully I will hear back from him soon, or request a return from Ebay. Thank you for your response and thankfully someone let me know that had my phone number, but did not know me, and I was able to change my iCloud password immediately.

     

    Thank you for the response,

    Jessie Martin
