I am losing my mind. I created a brand new Apple ID that I don't use for any other services, and no one else has, and I am still getting 'locked out for security' weekly. I am so sick and tired of this!!!! And every time I get locked out I have to log into iCloud and iTunes on all my devices. Seriously, between my iPad, iPhone, Macbook, and Apple TVs I have to login in like 25 times each time it happens. It's INFURIATING!! And there is no way someone is trying to hack my Apple ID because the only way anyone would have this Apple ID would be if Apple was hacked. What am I missing, and how the hell do I fix this besides trashing all my Apple stuff and getting an Android (which I do NOT want to do)???

Thank you for reading my rant, and any helpful insights would be great.

Too many failed password attempts. Someone is trying to brute force sign into your Apple account. The email you used when creating the new Apple Account is known to spammers. Change email associated to account, along with any trusted emails.
