Apple ID codes sent - but NOT REQUESTED

I just received 3 text messages in a row - now 4 - of being sent an Apple ID verification code - but I HAVE NOT REQUESTED IT.

I do have 2 factor identification, but this is a bit of worry

That could indicate someone is trying to sign into your Apple ID. As long as they do not have access to one of your trusted devices, they will not be able to sign in.


 If the attempts continue, you can consider a name change.
