I just got a call saying my iCloud has been breached

I just got a call from ***** saying my icloud has been breached. Is this a trusted number and should I give them what they are asking for?

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.
