Received unauthorized text with verification code.

I received what looks like a verification code via text message, but the text is in Chinese (with the exception of "Apple ID").

I translated it as well and it states "You Apple ID verification code is XXXXXX"

I can provide images, but that's it in a nutshell.

I didn't make an attempt to log in. Is there a way to see login attempts and from where?

Apple ID verification Code After receiving several unsolicited Apple ID verification Codes, and reading the comments on this platform, I have following questions: 1) the unsolicited codes were received without asking allowance, informing the location of the login attempt, however they were received on the same channel as the "normal" Apple verification codes that I have generated myself. How is this possible? 2) Does receiving unsolicited Apple ID verification Codes mean that someone else already has my AppleID+password? I have not shared this with anyone, so how is this possible?

Apple ID verification code I just got 3 or 4 verification codes in a row without logging in anywhere. Does that mean someone is trying to log in to my Apple account?

There isn't a record of log in attempts/location.
