My Apple ID has been compromised So far I believe now he’s doing it through my family sharing I’ve noticed he seems to do it through apps that I don’t have therefore I can’t see and I’m not really text savvy unfortunately and I feel like before I can get him out of it. He’s already blocking me from doing it. He has access to my Wi-Fi and majority of my passwords because I’ve already switched my rotors. I switched everything. Is there anything I can do besides having to buy all new electronics ? Here is just an example where I’ve never started a family he uses it like this prior and I can’t access any of the stuff that saved in my files. I have a VPN I have malware protection, but I really sound like I’m speaking gibberish I really know nothing about this stuff and he’s kicked me out of any possibilities of using an old iPhone by changing, the login iCloud and adding find my phone to it so I can’t reset it and I don’t know the passwords so I’m not sure what to do now when I check this it says that I’m the child under the account of the family sharing but it’s all under my iCloud and then he changes the password to my old iCloud so I can’t access those and it says I can’t make any more. I’ve reached a limit . [Edited by Moderator]

Secure your Account:

If concerned for device access, then (A)verify your devices, and (B)secure your account. Open a new eMail address and use that for your Apple ID.

1. Verify your Devices:

Verify that all devices are logged in to your account, by using this link: Check your Apple ID Device List to See where you're Signed in - Apple Support

then...

2. Modify your Credentials:

Having been stollen, someone lily has your credentials. So, by all means, modifying them.

Modify: your login credentials (Using Both a New eMail and a New Password for each and all sites)
Associate: a different method of payment to your account
Enable: Two-Factor Authentication for Apple ID and for all other accounts that have such an applicable option
