I've been told this is a scam - don't follow the link

Hi I've just had a message from what looks like O2 but I think it is a scam. Has anyone else had this ?

Txt:

O2:We were unable to process your latest bill. In order to avoid fees, please update your payment information via: O2:We were unable to process your latest bill. In order to avoid fees, please update your payment information via: [Removed]

I checked and payment info is correct

Cheers
