Yes i've already seen this but i'm not even using this email address so it can't be my fault, and a lot of people are complaining about it, is it possible that Apple got hacked or something ?

No, not likely. I'm not getting spam emails from my iCloud account and Apple hasn't released any press statements.

Yes! Does anyone know how to stop them? Or how to set up filters to have them go straight in Junk folder at least?

Mail/Preferences/Junk Mail -  Mark move to Junk Mailbox.

Where do I find that? When I go to icloud preferences it does not look like that and says nothing about junk mail?

I use icloud to open email, I see that if I use Mail it has this option...

Is there a similar option if I use icloud

I think everyone was assuming that you were using an email client like Mail instead of iCloud web mail.

Yes, I am getting a lot of spam from icloud.com

I started getting spam from an icloud.com email ddress.  The name shown is 'Miracle Pill' and it comes from 3L3FWHAGW1@icloud.com  The content is a bunch of random lines that look like some computer or html language.  Does Apple have some kind of help account you can forward this to?  In the past I have forwarded emails back to email service providers and they have closed the accounts when they found out they were being used for spamming.
