Does your friend know your Apple ID and password or are they trying to hack into your account? Has your friend used your Apple ID and password to download purchases from the App Store/iTunes?


You might want to consider changing your password and making sure it is a strong one. 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.
