Scam call? I’ve received several calls identified as Apple support warning of My ICloud account being compromised. Is this a scam call? I was given a phone # claiming to be toll free. It did not appear to be a toll free #.

I just received a phone call that my iCloud account is compromised. Does Apple make this kind of phone call? Or is this phishing? Is this just phishing calls? I received several calls today different numbers and the same message. In these calls, I was asked to press 2 to get the Apple support specialist or call at a later time at toll free #208-262-0000. The phone numbers are from Arizona with area code 408.
