has anybody had a strange legacy device added to their apple id account after a visit to an apple store? I came home after a visit to apple trafford park and found a new device (iphone xr) had been added to my account with all the same rights and accesses as my own devices. Very weird and a bit scary i had no notifications on my other devices or anything, has anyone else had this?

I would suggest to request a copy of your Privacy Report. I have not done it myself so don't know if it shows date of sign in, but thought I would suggest it since it claims it shows sign in records.
Get a copy of the data associated with your Apple Account - Apple Support
Since it shows as iOS 16, it may have been signed in along time ago. Of course I would also recommend changing your password after removal. Please post back if you choose to request a copy of your data and if it does show sign in of devices.
I know and i have done, the point of the post is why was it put there and by who? The phone simply went in for a replacement screen and it was in the possession of apple “geniuses” in the shop the whole time so has an apple employee done this for nefarious reasons?

You can easily remove it from your account from Find My or Settings > [Your Name], and change your Apple Account password.
How can I protect my Apple ID from unauthorized access and devices?
