"Stolen iphone - accept to use iCloud account from another device or not?: My boyfriend's phone was stolen. Now he bought a Macbook, which he logged into with the same iCloud account he was logged into on the stolen phone. Now on his laptop he gets notifications asking "Approve *name of his stolen iPhone*?[...]"

Troubleshooting a Hacked Account:
I. Getting In to your Apple Account:
You need to get into your Apple Account. So, contact Apple Support. If you have a hacked iCloud account, then ask the Apple Rep if they can help you add Two-Factor Authentication. Ask them to assist you with changing your password to what it should be. Important: Perform a trial-&-error login session, prior to ending the call.
Apple Contact Info:
- Contact Us - Choose Locations
- Proceed from there, as necessary
- Why the Wait: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)
II. Secure your Info:
If concerned for device access, then (A)verify your devices, and (B)secure your account. Open a new eMail addressee d use that for your Apple ID.
1. Verify your Devices:
Verify that all devices are logged in to your account, by using this link: Check your Apple ID Device List to See where you're Signed in - Apple Support
then...
2. Modify your Credentials:
Having been stollen, someone lily has your credentials. So, by all means, modifying them.
III. Report Items to Apple:
So, report phone call's and messages info to Apple and modify. Use my User: Using the Photos App to Report Scams - User Tip
