icloud comprmised??

I got a call on my landline saying my icloud acoount was comprmised from China. They wanted me to log into my computer and check. I said no and asked for their ID. They said no until I logged in. Is this a scam? I hung up. Thanks!

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.
