Sounds like a suspicious popup to me.


Check your device list to see if there is a device signed in that you don't recognize. You can remove the device using the steps in the article below. As a precaution, change your password.


Apple ID device list -Check to see where you‘re signed in.    


 Apple ID Password Change.
