Scam calls claiming "Apple Support" about a breach in my Cloud.

I am receiving multiple calls claiming to be Apple Support, about a breach in my cloud. I listened long enough it was a scam. However they have been calling me every 15 minutes for last few hours from different phone numbers. 17 calls from them. All coming from "+1 (715) 828 ..... " Eau Claire, WI. So I can't block it. Is there a way I can block calls from that prefix?


How can I stop it?

The caller id number shown on scam and marketing calls is frequently not the number actually originating the call. The number is often spoofed.


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