Unable to verify my Apple ID account

Hi! I’m new to the iPhone family and recently I purchased the latest iPhone model. But when I going to create an apple id I noticed that someone has used my mail address for an apple id. However, I have been using

this email since 2008 and someone created an Apple ID using my email in 2020. When I check my inbox, I see an email asking to verify Apple ID. However, I can responsibly confirm that I did not verify the account.

How I can get my email ID back to create an Apple ID?
