iPhone Locked and Recovery Email Unfamiliar.

My phone updated and completely locked me out it says "iPhone Locked to Owner", I input my apple id and password and it tells me my apple id has been locked due to security reasons and to reset my password but when I go to reset my password it shows a recovery email that is unfamiliar to me. Could anyone give me some help?

New iPhone 15 Pro Max locked to owner It is requiring the password for an email that I set the phone up with which I don’t remember that email password whatsoever. Secondly, I was hacked, and I had to change my Apple ID so the original email in question that they want a password for, doesn’t even exist anymore?? Please help

lost recovery code Apple Id / iCloud account Question: phone was hacked - (through gmail account BEWARE!) Unable to log in and the recovery code I have isn't working. If I can't get into account how long before I can reclaim email address? Is there really no way of recovering this account?

Account recovery issues with new iPhone and forgotten password Last week my phone crashed, I had to get a temporary android until mine came, I knew all my passwords, security questions but I couldn't get the verification text, and finally got my number ported in. Now I got my new iPhone and it says my password is wrong, my phone number is not supported and I answered ALL verifications and still put me in account recovery. Now what good is it actually if you know all the security questions, still can't get in your account. Or what is the point of having to change your password so much you don't remember it, then it tells you that you can't use the previous password (it just said it was wrong) if you still have to go through all this?? If somebody wants to hack my email to get my Dollar General coupons, more power to them, but I need to get in the too!! No matter what you remember you will always have to do account recovery if you get a new device!!! [Re-Titled by Moderator]
