Apple security breach.

I keep getting calls stating my iCloud acct is in jeopardy from someone trying to log in. They tell me to go to the App Store and download a security app and they will help. Must do it while they are on the phone.


doesn’t seem right to me.


any thoughts?

It is a scam. Apple doesn't make unsolicited phone calls. If there was a problem you would be notified when attempting to log in, including when logging into this forum. Also see: Recognize and avoid phishing messages, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support
