I'm pretty sure there isn't. If there actually was, I bet the folks over at Apple customer support would be shouting it from the rooftops. 😢

To be honest, I don't own a single one of their devices here in the States, yet I keep getting these "Apple" notifications about my ID being reset and all that other nonsense. Can you still log in to your Apple ID without any issues?

Could you send over a screenshot of the emails? Just make sure to hide the sensitive stuff... then we can take a look. If I remember correctly, when you first set up an Apple ID, you have to pick three security questions.

Yeah, but I'm pretty sure if someone's trying to hack in, they just need to nail two of the questions plus your birthday and your Google Drive email.
The emails are definitely from Apple, unfortunately. When I woke up, my old Apple ID password just wasn't working anymore, so I had to reset everything. Here are the emails. Thanks for getting back to me. 🙂

Hey everyone,

So, someone basically broke into my Google Drive recently, and I’m pretty sure they did it by cracking my security questions. I woke up to two back-to-back emails from Apple that night—one saying my Apple ID password had been reset, and another flagging a login to my cloud storage from a Windows machine using Chrome. Since it was 3 AM and I was fast asleep—and considering I don't even own a PC—there’s zero chance it was me.
Now the big question: how do I figure out who actually did this? It's not like I have anything scandalous stored in there, but the whole thing is still eating at me. 😠 It could just be some random internet troll, but the thought that it might be someone I actually know is way more unsettling than a stranger. I tried calling Apple support, but they either can't or won't help me track anything down. Then I went to the local police, and they basically laughed in my face, telling me they don't waste their time on "petty" stuff like this. 🥳
Does anyone know if there's a way (besides going through the cops) to dig up the perpetrator's IP address, or even just a general location of where they logged in from? Any advice would be massively appreciated. 🙂
