RECEIVING UNREQUESTED VERIFICATION CODES

Hi,

I have received several unrequested Apple ID verification codes on my iPhone. Do I need to take some action?


Regards,

Paddy

Hello paddy159,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand your concern with getting verification codes you didn't request, and we'd be happy to look into this with you.


To get started, make sure you don't hit "Allow" when you receive one of those pop-ups. Next, let's check out this article that has some tips on what to do if you think your account has been compromised:
