Call received that my Apple iCloud account has been breached - May 29, 2020

I have received six (6) voicemail messages on my iPhone from the following telephone numbers:

866-518-7*** 866-587-0***, 866-572-0***, 866-594-2*** to call back on this number 208-262-0*** that my account has been breached and should contact Apple support advisor.


These messages left on my phone seem to be a hacker trying to get my personal information. I am concern and want to warn others about this. I have put a blocked on all those numbers and deleted the messages.


Thank you.

As I am sure it has been said many times in this thread, but Apple DOES NOT CALL CUSTOMERS TO REPORT COMPROMISE. You will find out on your own that your account has an issue and call them. And why can't you call Apple? Thats what their tech support and security teams are for? If you believe you may have your account compromised see: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204145 for more details.

I received four (4) voicemails, so far, on my iPhone from the next numbers:

(516) ***-**75

(516) ***-**63

(516) ****-**10

(516) ****-**54


with the following message:

"Before using any Apple device please contact Apple support advisor press one to connect with Apple support advisor two to listen to this message again or if you wish to contact us later please call us on my toll-free number **** thank you..."


I have not answer any of the calls, because I thinks it is a scam.

I have received all calls today, June 26, 2020.


They keep calling. Actually, I got a call from the last number while writing this.

Is there a way to make them stop? Or how do I report the number?


Thank you,

Received at least four phone calls stating my Apple account has been breached. Four different phone numbers with numbers resembling my phone number. Gave a toll-free number to call back to speak with support. Looked up prefix of toll free number and it is not a correct toll-free number. I would like to know what the actual procedure is from Apple if they contact a client about the account. Is it an e-mail, a phone call..... will the ID state "Apple." How does a user know what is real and what is fraudulent? Thank You.
