Why did I receive an Apple ID verification code when I didn't request it?

Why do I keep receiving text from 50472 and 81961 providing me an Apple ID code?

Someone may be trying to sign your Apple ID, which would generate the request for a verification code. Since you have 2 Factor Authentication enabled, as long as they can't access one of your trusted devices, they can't get a code, and sign in. You should be okay.
