Icloud - Received a call from Apple INC. - 1(800) MYAPPLE - Icloud account has been breached

I received a call from 1(800) MYAPPLE number, and it showed on my screen as Apple Inc. ( since the contact is somehow in my contacts)

The automated voice says.

"Your Icloud account has been breached. Don't do anything with your icloud account. "

Than it hung up.

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.
