Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Apple ID and phone number

This morning I received a message reporting that my ID and phone number are being used for iMessage on a new iPad I had not signed into the iPad (54) which reportedly is using my ID and phone number. Am I being hacked? What do I do?

iPhone 5, iOS 9
