Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

I have gotten several phone messages saying my Apple account has been charged $1,299.00 and I should contact them to cancel if it not mine. Am I being scammed? I’m sceptical about connecting with whoever is sending me this voicemail.

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.
