I received 12 voicemails yesterday from a robo caller claiming to be Apple support. It said my iCloud account had found suspicious activity on my iCloud account. Has anyone else been getting these?

There appears to be a pretty elaborate phishing scam happening. I received 12 voicemails yesterday and more this morning from a robot claiming to be from Apple support, saying my iCloud account was breached. Has anyone else been getting these?

iPhone SE, iOS 13

Unfortunately, it is a very common scam attempt.


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.
