Apple email notifications in another language, fraudulent activity suspected

I received notification this week that requests were being made to change my apple password. Notifications were coming in both English and Arabic. I suspected fraudulent activity so I updated my password. Now, with every activity on my account I continue to get apple emails in Arabic. I have confirmed my security settings are set and devices are correct. What additional steps can/should I take to ensure my account is not compromised?

You can also add 2 Factor Authentication to your account for more security. If the attempts continue, you might want to consider a name change.
