I just received a message on my iPhone that my “Apple ID and Phone Number are now being used for iMessage and FaceTime on a new Apple Watch.” I do have an Apple Watch, but I’ve had it for over a year and haven’t changed anything… what should I do?

If you are uncertain about a message and a resource provided in that message, do not click on any links. Try to independently verify the resource by going to a support page on apple.com and use that to contact Apple.
