Lots of calls saying my account has been hacked
Calls from Washington DC and Irvine CA saying my iCloud has been hacked. Is this scam?
Question marked as
It is indeed 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.
