Continual Phone Calls/Voicemails re: iCloud Breach - Assuming a SCAM?

I've received repeated calls today with voicemails left regarding icloud breach warnings. The only references I can find online are at least a year old, so I'm correct to assume that an old scam is just making its rounds again?

iPhone 5c, iOS 10

Yes, it is and seems to be fairly common recently. 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.

One option to consider is Settings > Phone > Silence Unknown Callers. See: Detect and block spam phone calls - Apple Support
