I changed my password to my iCloud and my 2 factor authentication is on and was on. On my iPhone is there any service I can use to make sure my iPhone doesn’t have anything in it that’s not supposed to be there thank you. I really appreciate it

Yes, this is a common scam attempt. Do not interact with the message or the sender. Your information was obtained from one of the many websites that have been hacked over the years (yahoo, LinkedIn, etc).

You are welcome.
Please read through the link I posted above. It is a great source of information for many types of scam attempts.
Please understand that the folks sending such emails know absolutely nothing about you, know nothing about your phone, nothing about your accounts. You are merely one of thousands to receive exactly the same email. Delete the email and move on with your day.
Thank you I really appreciate it. I was ready to download antivirus software 🤦🏽♂️
none apple devices needs antivirus so like stepman1 said don’t interact with those senders
