Can someone access my personal messages iMessages?

I just found out that someone is accessing all my personal iMessages, not sure how, but I'm guessing they are putting my phone number in on their iPad to track what is being said. Is this possible? How can I stop it with out changing my cell number

Let me clarify my previous answer. Your iCloud account is what links all devices that have access to your iMessages (that is, texts sent between iOS devices, and to or from a Mac). Unless they know your iCloud login and password, they cannot get access to them. It's nothing to do with your cell number, and nothing to do with the passcode on an iPhone or iPad.


As I said above, you should make sure you change your appleID password (ie your iCloud password) to something unguessable, and set up two-factor authentication using the link I supplied.
