All iPads iPad says that I've changed passcode recently, but I haven't

[123123123]

Hi all. Got a new iPad about a week ago. When I picked it up to use it today, the passcode screen said that because I'd recently changed my passcode, I'd need to enter it to use the iPad. Thing is, I didn't change it. It's been the same since I first set it up, and my existing passcode still worked despite the message. Should I worry about having been hacked or something?

Since you’re still covered by AppleCare you can call Apple Support for help.

My ultimate solution is that I don’t use a passcode. Never have, and never had a problem.
