My husband has been receiving phone calls all day long from phone number XXX-XXX-8257 stating that our ICloud account has been breached and we need to call back or press one to continue. Is this a scam or the real deal?

The calls are scams.
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 ignore the calls or hang up on them, repeatedly if needed.
