Hello,


I have gotten 5 phone calls from the above number, saying my icloud, apple ID, and PW has been hacked. Is this a scam? I am having trouble actually verifying my account information.

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.
