How do you report a user that continues to access your appleid-Fraud

I am having a issue with unauthorized use of my appleid to put fraudulent information or stuff my personal appleid? Can I press charges or have this investigated?

iPhone XR, iOS 13

You might want to consider changing your password and making sure it is a strong one. You can also add 2 Factor Authentication to your account for more security. If the attempts continue, you might want to consider a name change.

Thanks. This is the second time I have changed my appleid. I use two factor and have device security with my carrier. I also did not share or give my appleid to anyone in my household or otherwise so it appears to be a Persistent hacker by a fraudulent person that can not stop stalking or understand “No”.


Thanks

Tameka
