Call from Apple inc

Just got a call from Apple inc with the Apple logo saying my iCloud was breached and to not do anything online. Is this real or a scam. Had the option to press one to talk to a representative.

It's a scam. Apple simply does not make calls like that. Do not respond or give out any information or you will be compromised.

iCloud breach I got a call from an unknown number stating that my iCloud account has been breached. The person calling asked me to press 1 or 2 for Apple Support. I pressed 1 and was connected to a boiler room. When I heard that, I hung up without giving any information. I was caught off guard. Can I be scammed?
