Possible scam

I have gotten several calls the last few days saying they are calling to tell me someone from overseas is trying to use my iCloud account. I asked for a number to call back and they said to use1800 my apple. I didn’t want to share any information on the phone. I didn’t know where to go to check this out online so am reaching out to you.

It is a scam. Apple doesn't make unsolicited phone calls. If there was a problem you would be notified when attempting to log in, including when logging into this forum. Also see: Recognize and avoid phishing messages, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support


One option to consider is Settings > Phone > Silence Unknown Callers. See: Detect and block spam phone calls - Apple Support
