Land line phone calls about breached of Icloud

I have been receiving numerous phone calls (20 in two days), on my land line, saying that my ICloud account has suspicious activities that need to be fixed. The caller said that these are automated calls that are generate from APPLE.Inc when they see suspicious activity. How do I find out if there is suspicious activity on my account and how do I fix the problem?

Apple does not make such calls.

All such calls are scams from criminals attempting to steal your personal and financial information. The callers will often use number spoofing to pretend they are calling from a legitimate business. The correct course of action is to hang up on them, repeatedly if needed.
