Are you sure it went the way you described here?

You can’t take control of devices after deleting the account, and notifications are send out per email for every little thing from logging in from a new device to changing trusted devices and phone numbers to changing the address on file.

I was as surprised as you are but AFAIK he didn't receive any email from Apple and he certainly didn't agree to having his account deleted.

I guess one possibility is the hacker might have accessed my father's email but it seems improbable. AFAIK my father didn't store passwords on the keychain and didn't sync it with iCloud.
