iCloud breach phone calls

I have been getting calls saying my Apple iCloud account has been breached. Is thus legit. I have not answered any of them

They are not legit.


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.
