Apple ID temporarily locked

I received an text from 347-848-1216 saying that my Apple ID has been temporarily locked for security reasons. Do apple send out texts? Or is it a scam?

That seems to be a scam/phishing email. Apple won't send you an email/text telling you your account is disabled/restricted or will be disabled/restricted. You will find out the next time you try to log in somewhere.
