Hi l received a text message saying the following:

O2: Your bundle will be cancelled on 31/10/2021 as we could not verify a payment method. To avoid this, visit: <link removed>

Can you tell me if this is a scam as the money was taken from my credit days ago for my monthly payment and l don't want to follow their instructions if it is a scam. Thank you.

@Ocraz 

As @TallTrees says, it is a scam but to stop these people there are other things to be done

Block the number and report it free to 7726.

DO NOT follow any links or enter any information.
