How can I know if my phone is being monitored by someone 3 towns away and my cell keeps telling me if I want to sign in at that location?
iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 16
For information about the sign-in location, see the following from: Two-factor authentication for Apple ID - Apple Support
When you sign in with your Apple ID user name and password for the first time on a new device or the web you might receive a notification on your trusted devices that someone is trying to sign in with your Apple ID. The notification might include a map of the approximate location of the sign-in attempt. This location is based on the new device's IP address and might reflect the network that it's connected to, rather than the exact physical location. If you know that you're the person trying to sign in but don't recognize the location, you can still tap Allow and view the verification code. If you're not the one trying to sign in, tap Don't Allow to block the sign-in attempt.

Why would Apple ID say I am trying to log in so far away like 3 towns away? Couldn’t that be a bait for someone to continue being logged into my cell?
