Stolen number

I had an alert to say my number has been used to log in to a new iPhone. It wasn’t me but Apple don’t seem to recognise this problem in any of their links. What do I do?

iPhone 6, iOS 12

I stand corrected. The response that I provided earlier was not correct. I did not know that it was a popup. I know what you are talking about now. What you saw was a notification because you may have activated FaceTime or iMessages on your iPhone and that was an awareness message sent to you from that device. That was just to let you know. No Scam. No Phishing.

And YES everything is OK with your devices.
