Breaches

Just got a call from Bangladesh that my iCloud has been breached. Is this how apple notifies someone of a breach?

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.
