Everything seems to be fine so far I haven’t gotten any spam emails or nothing I just still worried it’s not safe

Maybe you want to learn more and fear less?

Here are two links to information on how we are targeted and some examples of the many sorts of scams:

Scam Pop-ups, Scam Viruses, Scam Receipts… - Apple Community

Recognize and avoid phishing messages, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support

We all started out not knowing this stuff, much like how we once didn’t knowing we need to have backups of our important data. Many of us learned that the hard way.

How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

Backups are an important part of our security too, should our devices be lost, damaged, or corrupted.

That is because you changed your email password - you have to put the new password into the mail account of your phone else your phone can't read your mail.

Sending the unsubscribe message:

• Cannot get your phone infected with viruses
• Cannot allow anyone to hack your phone or your email

Your phone and email are safe.

The only minor consequence, is you have told the spammers that your email is valid and active. You might see an increase in spam emails. These are annoying but not dangerous as long as you don't click any links in them.

All that has happened here is more work for you (that unnecessary password change), and more spam for you (the acknowledgment sent to the spammers).

Spammers can’t get an email password from a clicked link—if that were possible, the whole internet would have caught fire by now as you’re neither the first nor the last to have erroneously clicked on spammers’ links.

Very likely nothing (else) has happened here.

While there is some malware for iPhone and iPad, it’s expense and not widely deployed nor widely invoked. The available malware tends to be used against political dissidents, investigative journalists, high-profile people, those with access to sensitive or classified data, those sort of folks. Not most iPad or iPhone users.

Has your usage over the last day or so been typical?
