Q: Text advising Apple ID is expiring

I've received a text "Dear customer, Your Apple ID is due to expire today. Prevent this by confirming your Apple ID at http://secureapple.su/appleid.apple.com/ Apple Inc." from +45 609910233.

I suspect this is a scam.

IT is indeed a scam. Your Apple ID Will not expire. Do not respond to the text message.

This applies to "SCAMs" as well... be sure to read it thoroughly, then act - it has a section on EMAIL Apple that your should change the email address to reportphishing@apple.com - this copies the email to https://www.phishlabs.com/ - Apple's Cyber security partner who actually act behind the scenes to combat these nefarious critters.
