suspected scam

[Joe37]

I have received an unsolicited text message from a mobile number 44 7904568184 purporting to be from O2 stating Wewereunabletoprocessyourlatestpayment.Inordertoavoidfees,pleaseupdateyourinformationvia: [link removed for safety]

I suspect this is a scam attempting to gain bank details as I have logged onto my account where noting is amiss.

Anybody with comments?  I am posting this on the community page as the online chat system doesn't seem to be working and no email address to send too!

It's a well known scam.
Block the number and report it free to 7726.
DO NOT follow any links or enter any information.

O2 never text from a mobile number.
