That's not a bad idea. I'll give that a shot, if only to rule out the desktop. My working theory is that theres a bug in the windows icloud program, and this could help isolate the source. Maybe after a bit, if no issues arrise with your test condition, I will sign in via a desktop browser and see if the emails re-appear, indicating that it may be my computer in general, as opposed to just the icloud program. We'll see.
Thanks
It’s unlikely there’s a bug that would hit logins. That seems super super rare that someone found a massive exploit into the system as a whole as is just fucking with your account lol. And doesn’t explain how anyone managed to get in or keeps trying or how they bypass 2FA; there’s lots of questions left unanswered. There’s just way too many hurdles being jumped to call it a “bug” imo. An infected PC seems much more likely.
I wouldn’t log in using your PC till you can for sure deem it free of malware.
