Apple Inc Call RE: Financial Activity on my Devices

I have been receiving multiple calls per day from "Apple Inc." stating "...refrain from using any financial activity on your devices. In order to speak with an Apple support representative right now, please press one or else call us back on our toll-free number 1-888-436-**** .." I assume this is a malicious agency trying to falsely obtain my information, but I haven't seen any other similar complaints recently. Is anyone else receiving these calls?

I too have been receiving multiple calls per day with the same message for the past couple of weeks. The message is left on my home landline, not on my iPhone or another Apple product. They tell you to call for Apple Support: 888***-8071. I Googled the number and saw a number of complaints which convinced me that this is a scam. The call originated from 800-***-7753. If there was a real problem, I think we'd see it all over Apple's website.
