call from an "Unknown caller" Telling me that my iCloud has been breached and to press 1 for more details

I got a call from an "Unknown caller" Telling me that my iCloud has been breached and to press 1 for more details.


I just hung up. I assume that it's a phishing attempt.


Please confirm the security on my account.


Thanks

Those calls are Phishing calls designed to steal your Apple ID credentials. Apple will never "cold call" a customer with that, or any other information. You can safely ignore the call/block the number.


There is nothing wrong with the "security" on your account. You can review: If you think your Apple ID has been compromised - Apple Support for your peace of mind.
