¡ How does this email account and name Showing up in my login screens when this is not me and this is a brand new phone or refurbished anyway. It was reset to factory settings obviously when I got it. Did someone hack my phone?

iPhone 8 Plus
Hello,
If the phone is possibly refurbished , it is probably the previous owner. If it will let you put in your Apple ID and password, you should be OK. Then do this: Return iPhone settings to their defaults - Apple Support
If you can't put in your Apple ID, it is activation locked to the previous owner. You should return it and get your money back:
Turn off Find My iPhone Activation Lock
Good luck.

iPhones are very difficult to hack, If you're not jailbroken it, or have given someone else access to your unlocked iPhone for a prolonged period of time, there is nothing going on.
