How do I secure my iPhone and Apple ID?

I received an email today saying my password had been successfully changed and i did not do it. Also my Reddit account i have and access with my apple unique password and hidden email was hacked yesterday. Or i found out yesterday. Every account has a number next to it, for example my phone says craigs iphone(2) and my reddit account also had a (2) next to it. Please how do i get rid of this hacker?
