Hello I_am_Storm,


Thanks for reaching back out. If you restart your iPhone, does the issue remain?


Restart your iPhone


If the issue remains after restarting your iPhone, please provide some more information. Are you trying to log in to a specific app or website when receiving the code? What exactly is happening when you are receiving this code via text?


You mentioned that you recently changed your password. Were you able to input the new password in? The article below provides some additional information about what you should do after changing your password.

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities I_am_Storm,


It looks like no one has responded to your question. Here are a couple things that might help others answer your question:


  1. Where are you seeing this message?
  2. Are you referring to Facebook Messenger?
  3. If not, can you provide some additional details?


Thanks!

I changed my password because I was receiving A series of Messenger verification codes through text messages even though my cellphone number was not registered in my fb messenger account and I wasn’t doing any changes in my apple account ID nor on my fb messenger. To date I received 9 Messenger verification codes since Monday.

I was thinking someone was trying to hack my account that’s why I am receiving messenger verification codes and to protect my apple account I changed my password. However even though i Already changed my password I still receive Messenger verification codes through text messages.
