Calls about cloud data breach
Tonight I've received 4 calls from 815 area code Frankfort, IL asking me to contact customer support about suspicious activity/breach of my icloud account. Is this legitimate call from Apple?

They are not legitimate.
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.
