iCloud Keychain Hacked?

When using auto fill my user name and passwords information has been replaced with a series of characters I did not create.


I tried deleting in System Preferences, the information returned. I then cleared cache and cookies and tried again to delete In system preferences. Same thing, website address was back with wrong user name and password characters.


I deleted all password information in Keychain (about 1900 passwords), cleared cache and cookies while disconnected from WiFi. I shut down my MacBook Pro and restarted.


Again, keychain has all the information back. The user name and password information is the same when I open an entry.


Have I been hacked? How do I handle?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15
