Continuous attack on my icloud account

I've got my account locked hundreds of times last years by someone trying to access it, worst case was 2 or 3 times a day. But for the last 3 days I can't get it unlocked for more than 5 minutes. I've already contacted support, changed security questions and password and the activation of two steps security is on it's way (it says I have to wait becuase I made substancial changes to my account).

I just wanted to know if this is happenning to someone else or is just happennig with my account.

If I were you, I'd change my Apple ID to end the constant attacks. Change your Apple ID - Apple Support Once you change your ID, they won't be able to target your new ID as they won't know it.

I would also recommend taking a look at the recommendations here: If you think your Apple ID has been compromised - Apple Support

Excuse us for thinking you wanted a solution. After all, that is what this site is. Users providing solutions for users in need. Now let's see how many others refuse to correct a problem like you are experiencing. I bet not many.
