I got a phone call from a "Apple Support" stating that my account has been breached? Was this a scam or ?? How do I go about figuring this out? Has my account actually been breached or was this just a scammer trying to get me with my information ?
iPhone XS Max, iOS 13
Just a scammer.
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.
