Sent all these the following week via email, since then I didn't hear from them only to receive their text yesterday that my passport is ready

Hello house, please I'm in serious need of your help. Last week Monday I posted that I haven't heard from vfs as regard my visa application, received a text yesterday that my processed visa is ready for pickup, went there today to pick it but I was denied only to read their reasons. The first is;
A false/counterfeit/forged travel document was presented, I don't not use any forged document, did everything myself and no forged document was used
2 you have not provided proof of sufficient means of subsistence, for the duration of the intended stay or for the return to the country of origin or residence
3 you have already stayed for 3months during the 6month period on the territory of the member states on the basis of a uniform visa with limited territorial validity
4 an alert has been issued in the schengen information system and so on
Now my reference number is LAGO/250418/0001/01, but what I have on the refusal letter is LOS.2018.006387
I have never applied for visa before in my entire life so I don't know where they got the number 3 reason from. Please house what should I do cos don't understand what is going on. Please someone should help me out. Thanks

Hello house, I applied for France short stay visa on 25th of April and until now I haven't heard anything from them. Though someone called me from vfs a week after I applied, asked few questions and also request for more documents and that I should send them via email which I did four days after the call. Called them on Monday to know why I haven't been called for pickup, the lady told me that it takes a minimum of 15working day and that it could take longer than that. Now, i'm worried cos it's been 36 days since I applied. Just want to know if I should be worried or not. Thanks
