This a scam: you haven't been hacked. End the call and don't interact with them - they are trying to fool you into giving them your ID and password.


In the unlikely event of there being a security problem with hyour account Apple will never ring you: they will lock the account and wait for you to feind out and contact them. That way you know who you are talking to.


All unexpected phone calls, emails or messages claiming that you've been hacked, or have a virus, or a payment method has failed and your account will be closed, are scams.
