Just got a call from a recording at 800-732-9**5 said my iCloud account was compromised

Want to know if 800-732-9**5 is a legitimate number for I-Cloud support. Got a call said my I-Cloud account

had been compromised and I shouldn't log in until I speak to someone at this number. I thought it might be a scam.

It is a scam.


Apple does not make such calls.


All such calls are scams from criminals attempting to steal your personal and financial information. The callers will often use number spoofing to pretend they are calling from a legitimate business. The correct course of action is to hang up on them, repeatedly if needed.
