Your iPhone is not going to shut down. The call that you received was probably a scam phone call. The goal of the caller was an attempt to get money out from you. Apple does not shut down or start service on any iPhones. Your carrier does that. Disregard the phone call that you received and beware of future scam phone calls that you may receive.
