Suspicious iCloud feature?

Hey everyone,

I’ve noticed a new line called “Setup” in my iCloud. Not sure what it is and whether I should worry about it — does anyone know what it is/does?

Thank you,

iPhone SE, iOS 15

Pop up Hi. I got a pop-up that looks like a system message asking me to re-enter my Apple ID in order to keep my iCloud information. Is this a request from Apple or is it a scam?

do I have malware or a virus? It says iCloud hacked I was exploring different sites about how to edit my videos for YouTube and I may have been infected by malware or a virus. As soon as I opened Safari, a message popped up in the upper right corner saying my iCloud has been hacked. It went away too soon before I could get a screenshot It did bring me to this site that I was able to capture (see pic below). I had read another post and downloaded the Malware free trial software and it performed a scan - it said I have none but is that even a credible app/site? Is there a way to check if I have Malware without using the malware app? Thank you.

This is normal and is on every iCloud account.
