Check your Apple ID device list (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT205064) and remove any device that shouldn't be signed in using the steps in the link.
If there are none that shouldn’t be signed in, then you should not have a problem at this point since you changed your Apple ID password. But see: What to do after you change your Apple ID or password https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204071

And, why did you post the URL of a site that hacks someone's computer? Please use some common sense before doing something like that in these forums. Did you not read the Apple Support Communities Use Agreement - Apple Community?
About Email and Other Scams
Apple always addresses you by your name or the name they have on file for you. The Email will be from apple.com or itunes.com. Email addresses can be spoofed. You can go to Mail > View > Message > Show all Headers to see more. Apple Emails will never contain an attachment. Apple will never request personal information such as Social Security numbers.
An exception to the above is when you order something from the Apple Store. The receipt will be addressed to Dear Apple Customer.
Avoid Scams
Report phishing email to abuse@apple.com.
Receiving an email is not indicative of hacking. If the only info you provided at the bogus site was your Apple ID and password, and you have already changed your password at the real Apple site, you should be fine.
