iCloud breech

I keep getting phone calls today telling me that there is suspicious use of my iCloud and that it has been breached. I keep hanging up or don’t answer thinking it is a scam but they keep calling. What is this?

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.
