Q: I think my iCloud may be hacked?
This really is an emergency. I got a new iPhone 6S today and while setting up, I signed in and got to the Backup from iCloud stage and when I chose a backup date to backup from my previous iPhone 5, the Apple ID that showed up is someone else's. I am extremely concerned. Does this mean that the owner of this email now has all my information and files??? If there is any connection, a few days ago prior to this, my dad took my iPhone 5 for repair and the repairman asked for my passcode so I gave it to him and he had access. The backup dates correspond with the date I had my phone repaired. I'm severely worried and don't know what to believe anymore. How could this happen? Sorry if this sounds stupid, this has never been an issue before, I don't know why this new email address is showing up on my phone. Please help, I'm lost and really worried that someone may have stolen all my files and I cannot backup anything to my new phone now. What should I do?
iPhone 5, iOS 9.0.2
