how can I block scammers that use your Icloud website from contacting me

this morning I got a email from someone using your email address to scam me out of 400 dollarsLthe person was pretending to use your icloud account to send me a message from one of the company's I deal with. So I called the company that I deal with the guy said to send it to their abuse people and they would take care of the scammer. so i thought I would let you know this person was using your platform to send out scammer information from other companies. I tried to find the email but comcast had already deleted it from my email. but it turns up again I will let you know for sure the email it came from via Icloud.

if I was more awake this morning I would remembered to copy the person that sent me that scam so you could see. But, I called Best Buy's Geek Squad and glad I did the guy helped me block that person that scammer. especially after what happened to me last year at this time when the scammer , scammed me out of my retirement savings. But also glad I contacted you out here on Apple community scammers are low life in my book. And thank you again Smilin Brian. thank you, thank you
