Suspicious activity calls

I'm getting calls from a Palatine, IL and a Jefferson City, Mo phone numbers indicating there is suspicious activity on my iCloud account. Are these bogus/fraudulent calls?

They are indeed bogus.


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.
