Robo-Call stating that iCloud account has been breached

I just received a phone call from this number in Pittsburgh: (412) 318-0656


I don't usually pick up calls from numbers/contact I don't recognize but I did this time and was greeted with a robotic voice stating that there has been suspicious activity on my iCloud account, it has been breached and directing me to call Apple Support at a number provided.


I hung up and am reaching out now. Please advise?

It is a phishing scam. Apple does not make unsolicited phone calls. Also see: Avoid phishing emails, fake 'virus' alerts, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support
