Harrasment facetime call from icloud email

Yesterday, I got a facetime call from an icloud EMAIL


I never get FaceTime calls from someone I don’t recognize so I answered it. Someone then exposed their private male part. I called them names and immediately hung up. I use a lot of privacy settings and don’t use or offload many apps for security reasons. I recently “reset” my apple account, perhaps that’s the problem (??) I reported the incident to

a b u s e @ i c l o u d . c o m

I also spoke to local police who said it is a crime if I can show intent to harm me. After the incident and through my carrier, I added spam id and spam block. Now I have a creepy feeling of being stalked! The world we live in is not only an adult world :(

Same here - never had this issue until about 3 days back. It was a group call from nobody I recognize. I received similar calls for the past 4 days from the same group, and each time the group was growing in size. How can this happen? So, I disabled my FaceTime, in hopes that the calls will be blocked. I also took time to block each of the callers in the group. AND.. I disabled Facebook and Instagram uses of my camera and my microphone. Even though I did all that, I just received another call from that same, and the group has grown in size again... so I hope Apple has an answer soon to the question; How may I stop the FaceTime calls that are spam??
