Kept receiving "A password reset request was sent from a device at the location shown below'

My iPhone 13 got stolen, and as expected, the thieves are phishing for my Apple ID credentials. I have safeguarded my account (changed password, activated 2FA) and do not click links from weird SMS messages. But now, I am receiving reset password notifications in my MacBook Pro:

I clicked it but I am not proceeding to reset my password because I think that is what the thief is expecting me to do. From Reddit, they said this is a legitimate push notification when they are trying to reset password via iforgot.apple.com.

The only problem is why is it not showing a location? It would be nice if they have the location where the reset password is being requested. That way I can report it to the Police, and *hope* that my device will be returned.

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)

I started getting this tonight (July 12) and even called apple support. It won't show where the person is trying to access my account from, it just automatically pops up with a change your password message. I've changed it, but I've gotten around 5 more attempts well into the night/early morning here. It's unnerving and though I'm glad I'm not the only one having this problem, I'd like to know more about how this has just started happening in the past 24 hours to people. I'm sure there have to be more.
