Someone stole and hacked into my iPhone 7! With passcode!!!

If you received a text message or email regarding your phone being found, and responded to it using a link in the message, you fell for a phishing scam.

You gave the thief your iCloud credentials. Your account was not "hacked". You willing gave up the information.

Chance of getting the passcode correct is one-in-million. So, sure it’s possible.

But, if this were me, I’d modify all credentials(methods of payments, assign a new eMail Address, and create an alphanumeric Password with special characters.

Also, I’d open a new a eMail Address, enabling Two-Factor Authentication for it. Rid of the eMail I currently own. Waiting up to 90 days for all to close.

Keep a hard copy of this in handwriting. Store it in a location that only you are aware on, and you have access to. Also, don’t share this with anyone whomsoever. And, don’t use a back PIN for the passcode — make it irrelevant to everything else.

Apple has nothing to do with your bank.

How do you know that they accessed your bank account using your iPhone?

Perhaps it was someone close to you who knew your passcode. We can't tell you how they did it. We are not psychic.
