Apple Support Advisor scam calls

I’ve gotten the scam call saying my iCloud account has been compromised and I need to speak with an Apple Support Advisor 10+ times in the last 120 minutes. And they keep on coming. Any advice on how to get these to stop?

You are right, this is a scam (I'm relieved you spotted this early and knew it was a scam!). These calls can't be stopped, if they are calling from the same number you should block their number, hopefully, this will minimise the number of calls you are receiving.


Please do not share any personal information with the scammers.
