All calls like the one you received are scams/phishing attempts. They are made by criminals that prey on the unwary. Apple never would make a call like this. Apple only calls if a user if the user has arranged the call. 

 

And, there are thing you can do to lessen the annoyance of such calls. For example, I hardy answer my land or iPhone any more. I only answer if caller ID or my contact list shows that I probably know the caller. Also, I figure that anyone that know me will leave a message if they have anything important to say and I don't answer. 

 

And, if you want to, you can get a land-line system that you can use in blocking scam/spam calls. Also they can be blocked from an iPhone. Last, I think this Apple document can be used to block scam calls as well as spam calls: Detect and block spam phone calls  https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207099


Note that there is no effective way to report the calls you are getting.

Thank they are calling on my landline and we are registered they have call with different numbers with different company names but all say the same thing that my icloud account has been breach. unfortunately i have medical issues and need to keep my landline open for emergency but yesterday they called me all day every 10mins so i finally took my phone off the hook and disabling my emergency button in case I cannot get to the phone. sucks
