My apple-id
was just registered and used on icloud
-- but not by myself. Perhaps a Christmas present erroneously associated with my e-mail, or maybe not. Could be malicious. Either way I want to secure the account which has been hijacked.
As it's a web-app, I asked on webapps:
https://webapps.stackexchange.com/q/123423/24327
then found I was able to gain control of a "fake" type, spam-trap, account:
https://webapps.stackexchange.com/q/123424/24327
So I also asked on the apple forum:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250043907
Not looking to spam the internet, but this is annoying and moderately concerning. So, asking apple experts here:
How do I gain access to the account associated with my e-mail not having knowledge of the associated phone number? Because I'm not able to proceed past that point.
