I just received a phone call from 1-800 *** 5887 saying it's from "Apple security" warning me about not making any financial transactions on my i phone until the matter is solved. It prompted me to enter "1" on my keypad.
Does this sound legit??

No, I've never heard Apple making phone calls about security (except for giving you a verification code - 6 digits . Two factor Authentications).

No. Its a scam. Apple will never ever call you unless you requested a call.
Was there any other info requested during the call beyond pressing one on the keypad?
no, just pressing one. also it said there was a security breach regarding my iCloud account before asking to press the keypad.
thank you.
Its definitely a scam.
Good, no personal info is compromised then.
Suspicious Phone call from "Apple"
