Got a text today from +447831946238 saying:

 

02: We were unable to process your latest bill. In order to avoid fees, please update your payment details via <Link>

 

(I haven't written the link just in case anyone click it by mistake).

 

I just wondered if this is a scam or not (I have not clicked on the link and haven't even opened the text just to be on that safe side)
