Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I am getting multiple calls a day warning me not to use any of my apple devices and to call an 800 number. Literally some of these calls come twenty minutes apart and often three in a row. I’m assuming at this point that they are phishing or scam calls, but I’m wondering if anyone else is having this issue and how to stop these calls.....
iPhone XS Max, iOS 12
Yes, it's phishing. This has been going on for a long time. Not much you can do about it except do not answer the calls if you do not recognize the caller.
Avoid phishing emails, fake 'virus' alerts, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support
You can also check with your carrier to see if they have a blocking service. If the number is the same all the time you can block that number yourself.

Thank you! I thought it was, but it’s good to get affirmation.
Your welcome. Another thing to keep in mind is that Apple will never initiate telephone contact with a customer.
Scam calls?
