Sorry -- I saw the following from the original post:

I thought it was your Apple ID and password that were hacked.


If you mean you into logged out of your Apple ID on the phone and then logged the phone into someone else's Apple ID, you should contact Apple Support to see if they can help. They may be able to if you purchased the phone new and have the original receipt. Not sure if they will require that or what they might require so it would be best to contact them. Contact - Official Apple Support
