I've attempted to adjust location services on my Mac, but I still get a message that says a Mac 135 miles away from me is attempting to login. How can I change this? How can I be sure that I'm not being hacked?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

If this is an e-mail you received, or a popup on the screen, about the time you were actually logging in, there is probably nothing to worry about. The location in the e-mail is where your ISP reported it. If their servers are in a location distant from you, there will be a large error. Based on other posts I have read, the distant error can be very large.
Why is my location showing 135 miles away from me?
