Phishing call?

getting multiple phone calls saying my apple icloud was compromised. Various numbers all listed out of Live Oak, CA with a "TOLL FREE" call back number of 315...which is out of Syracuse and not toll free. Thinking it's a phishing call, thoughts? If phishing, how do i stop the calls...i've gotten 5 in the last 30 minutes.

iPhone 7, iOS 13

Scam. Apple will never call you unless you called them and asked for a call back.

Does you phone company offer call blocking?
