Thank you so much! I will admit it startled me in the middle of the night and I couldn't think of how or who could be trying to get into my Apple ID!! I went through those first three steps and there was no other device signed up under my Apple ID other than my own. I will just double check those other links that you provided and I appreciate all of your help! Thank you!
You are very welcome. Be safe.
