Find the source in not an easy thing to do, and doing so is essentially a police matter that I can't advise you on. But, I can suggest some security-related documents, that may help you in the future.

Also assuming you already are using two-factor authentication, you can periodically 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. But, if an unauthorized device signed in, Change your Apple ID password https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201355
