Scam calls about iCloud breach

I keep getting calls every 5 minutes on my home telephone number that my iCloud account has been breached. Is this a scam? How do I make it stop?

Yes, it is a scam. Apple will never "cold call" a customer with that, or any other information. You can safely ignore the calls/block the numbers. Consider using: Detect and block spam phone calls - Apple Support
