Q: iMessage Hack/Spam

Hi,

 

Last night I noticed that I had about 100 iMessages in 'Delivered' status from my phone; not sent by me.   The messages had been sent to multiple +86 (china) numbers.

 

I sent STOP to a couple of them as advised by Vodafone, but too many to complete all.   I have changed my apple id password and set up two factor authentication.

 

Is there any other secutiry precautions I can take to avoid this from happening again?

 

Anyone else experienced this?  Vodafone advise that I might be liable for around £5 per message.  This has made me quite ill with worry....

 

Any advice welcomed!

iPhone 6, iOS 10.0.2
