"Location Sharing Screenshots dating back to 2021 (never shared location) - Help and Advice needed - crazy ex. A few months back I received these screenshots all at once to my texts. There were four or five dating back to 2021. […]I have never shared an apple ID with anyone. I do not share passwords and I have done all I can to secure everything.”

Thank you for the followup reply.
Troubleshooting Text Messages:
I. Provide More About this Text Message:
So, who texted you these screenshots? Was it your ex? Do you recognize the phone number?
II. Perhaps Sent by a Scammer:
You ever consider changing your eMail Address? I have over-the-years. Brokers find your information, and then they share it with others. So Google you phone number, and your eMail address, and see if it pops right up. I’ve seen mine pop up, and that’s why I get so many scam eMail. Eventually, I moved on to using a new eMail address.
III. New eMail Address and New eMail App:
Looks to me like you have added this eMail address to your Mail app many times over. So, remove the entire account, and then move forward from here to using the eMail provider’s app. As an example, if using gmail, then use the gmail app. Gmail - Email by Google on the App Store - App Store
IV. Avoiding Popups and Scam Messages:
Two Things to do...
A. Malwarebytes Mobile Security:
If you were to use Malwarebytes Mobile Security then that may do the job, somewhat. It blocks out suspected scams, based on the sender's phone number. The paid version lets you report a number - once reported, it blocks it out, not even allowing it to go through. Malwarebytes is created by longtime users of these forums, making it the only reliable Security Software for Apple devices. Go Here: Malwarebytes Mobile Security - App Store
B. Brave Bowser:
Try using the Brave Private Web Browser. It blocks out all sorts of junk. You can get ti directly in the App Store: Brave Private Web Browser - App Store
