Compromised ID

Dear users,

I felt for a scam last week and I signed in on a fake apple site. I used my id and password to log in but I quickly realised it was a scam so I changed my password and deleted browser history. However, anytime I log in since then, a pop up notification appears both in the MacBook and iPhone with the message Your apple ID is being used to sign in on the web near Warsaw. I'm in Cracow, is this normal?

And, no matter if I allow or I don't, it asks whether I want to change my password. And then, the two-factor validation routine.

Should I be worried?

MacBook Pro 15", 10.14

If this is an e-mail you received, or a popup on the screen, about the time you were actually logging in, there is probably nothing to worry about. The location in the e-mail is where your ISP reported it. If their servers are in a location distant from you, there will be a large error.
