Random check in notification on iPhone

Between a message with a friend I randomly received a notification for checkin at an address and my friend received a the exact notification with the notification saying I sent it. It was an address I had put into my maps on Saturday it’s now Tuesday. It was so random. How did this happen? Am I hacked?

Random Apple Maps link created from Messenger message I sent a message through Facebook Messenger and noticed that two random words became a hyperlink when the message was sent. I clicked the link and it redirected to an Apple Maps location for a hospital in Norway. I’m from the Philippines btw. I’m feeling so anxious that it may have caused anything to my iPhone being compromised. I have the latest iOS installed. What should I do to check if my iPhone has been compromised?

Potential virus or hacking attempt I was using the internet on my iPhone SE and a window popped up saying “my iPhone was hacked,immediate response required” I closed the page I was on as the message didn’t look official. there are 11system services that indicate an item has used my location in the last 24 hours. is this bad as in a virus or a hacking situation?

Same thing happened to me but I have not put this person’s address in my Maps. I just clicked on the notification and it took me directly to this family member’s text thread with me. They have never seen it either so it’s a mystery.
