ICloud Breach phone calls

Hi!


ive received several calls/voicemails since Friday that my ICloud account has been breached! Hackers in Germany and Turkey are trying to Access my iCloud account! I was told not to make any purchases. I was asked to download an app from the App Store but I hung up bc I was scared it was a scammer...

iPhone X, iOS 12

It is a scam. Apple doesn't make unsolicited phone calls. If there was a problem you would be notified when attempting to log in, including when logging into this forum. Also see: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204759


Also, the caller id number shown on scam and marketing calls is rarely the number actually originating the call. The number is usually spoofed.
