I keep getting messages from Apple Support saying my ICloud has been hacked

I keep getting messages from Apple support saying my iCloud account has been bleached. I’m not sure if it’s legit or not. however there’s no phone number no name left …. is this legit?

Has anyone gotten random calls like that before?

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.
