I keep getting phone calls saying my iCloud was hacked

I keep getting phone calls saying my iCloud was hacked and I should get a hold of apple support. I am not sure if it’s a scam phone call or real.

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.
