Check that message again, usually the notification should be "AirTag Found Moving With You" rather than airpod.


If so, check this article > What to do if you find an AirTag or get an alert that an AirTag is with you - Apple Support

You may have accidentally bagged someone's airtag.

My wife has received the same message referring to AirPods (not AirTag), so the message is legit.


In our case, I think I know why this happened.


I was helping her with her malfunctioning AirPods that needed to be reset. When I set them up again, I was using my iPhone - so as a result, I guess the AirPods were thinking that I was the owner, not my wife.


So the next time she went on a run (using her AirPods and also having her iPhone with her), she got home and then noticed the message on her phone.


Hope this helps!
