I received an unasked for Apple ID Verification Code at 1:45am last night. I do have 2-step verification on, so should I assume my iCloud account password has been compromised?
iPhone 6 plus running OS 9.1
iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 9.1
More likely attempted to compromise, but failed.
Change your password just to be safe.
As the request for the Apple ID Verification code (step 2) is sent after successful Apple ID/password (step 1), I have to believe the password was compromised, though I've no idea how. I have changed my password to a bigger, harder one. I'll keep an eye on it.
Same thing happened to me. I got it 8 o clock in the morning. I did not either request such a code. My password is 20+ mixed characters long so I dont think this is someone that have guessed it. Could it be some error at Apple sending out these random codes?
I also have the same phone as you.
Received unexpected Apple ID Verification Code.
