Text from first time number - possible spam

[UD99]

Hi, Today I received a text message from 07852 132 004 stating that it was O2 and that they were unable to process my latest bill and to avoid fees I should go to a link. Checked my O2 account and pazment is not due until 17 of th month and no red flags in My O2. Is this spam? Thanks
