Apple ID and phone number This morning I received a message reporting that my ID and phone number are being used for iMessage on a new iPad I had not signed into the iPad (54) which reportedly is using my ID and phone number. Am I being hacked? What do I do?

Can hackers access codes through my iPhone? Hey, I’ve been getting iMessages of verification codes for iCloud and google home. I believe someone is trying to hack into my accounts. Can they access these codes through my phone? What is my best next step in order to be extra careful that I don’t get hacked and for some peace of mind. Should I delete the messages?

Phone numbers can be spoofed. If you were able to change your password and enable 2 Factor Authentication, you have control of your account.
