Perhaps a Scam and Why:
What made you want to want to log in? If it is an eMail, then it is a phishing scam. I bring that up because if you tried unsuccessfully logging in too many times, then you would have been locked out. Setting up a new account would not be a recommended option. Forward the eMail to: reportphishing@apple.com
Don't Create A New Account:
If you are having troubles logging in, contact Apple Support. They'll know what's going on and why.
If you do a name change on your current Apple ID, you will still be able to access your apps.
Note the restrictions in the article.
What to do after you change your Apple ID or password - Apple Support I suggest doing this before you change your Apple ID or password.
I am receiving the code but I am still unable to verify my email address.
